Everyone sees that gas prices are now hovering over $3.00 per gallon.
Does that mean that the Electric Golf Cart is now the better choice?
Not necessarily, in our opinion.
What you may not know is that while gas prices have risen significantly over the past several years, so have the cost of Golf Cart Batteries. Three years ago new 6 volt batteries were selling for around $70, and 8 volt golf cart batteries were in the $75 range.
Today, the same batteries are over $120 each.
You do the math.
Review our previous blog on Gas versus Electric, and let the other factors guide your choice, not the cost of fuel, since both gas and electric "fuel" costs have risen significantly, if you consider battery replacement equivalent to buying gas.
