Electirc or gas???

I am looking for my first cart. Which is better?

Gas is, unless you like electric, then electric is.
No wait, I was right the first time, Electric.

Yep, it's Gas alright

How do you plan to use it? What is your budget?

I am planning on taking it capming with us, and driving around the neighborhood.

Likeed Electric because I don't have to buy gas but it costs alot to get some speed and power.

I want to get a lift and run at least 22" tires.

Budget is tight!

The way i started to look at it is this ..my electric is gonna be sweet when im done with it .. Quiet and stealthy.. Perfect for the neighborhood cruising ill be doing .. BUT i have always been super impatient... I know im not gonna like waiting 3 or so hours for the cart to recharge.. Id rather just carrry around extra gas .. But then thats extra money u have to keep putting in it ... Decisions decisions

Most state campgrounds here in SC don't allow gas carts

All of my gas carts are what I call quiet.
You say "carry around extra gas"? you will be suprised, My girls can run the wheels off of theirs all weekend every weekend and I might add gas three or four times a summer.
You will need to charge an electric cart nightly to keep the batteries up.
Also, watch the electric meter spin when you plug in the charger!
