I vote for gas carts. No problem with gas smell.

Ask the guy driving behind you....better yet in tunnel.

Screw the carbon footprint

No, I do not smell gasoline in my garage from my gas Yamaha. The odor from my golf cart is no more noticeable than the odor from my car sitting next to it.

Thats why I am always ahead of the other guy. You are in a tunnel for what 5 seconds.Not sure how so many people drove cars in the 60s,had more of a gas smell back then. we all survived.......

Gas.....I want to play 18 at any course, get lunch somewhere else, still go shopping. Gas will get you there and back

I want to thank everyone for your replies. Most helpful.....

We debated about this too. We finally ended up with electric....bought a GEM yesterday at Bill Bryan's.

This may be slightly off topic but thought I'd throw it out. If you have a gas cart that exceeds 19MPH this would mean it would be a lsv. Can a gas cart be licensed as an lsv without being street legal?

Just my guess, but if you added seat belts, one piece windshield with wipers and anything else needed to make it street legal, then it would be ready to be licensed. There really isn't all that much difference from say a Tomberlin and another electric golf cart.

Short answer is NO (AFAIK), if you have a gas cart that exceeds 19.6 it is illegal (I am not judging, just tongue stuck in cheek). It is my understanding to be an LSV/NEV (something you could register) it must be electric.
