I can't see the logic in owning either, but if push come to shove, I
think I would opt for the gas powered one.
Owning one appears to be something most golfers - don't need.
Just where, and there is bound to be a reason for owning one, but where?
Maybe in the case of where a guy plays several times a week in remote
areas, owning one would be justified, and /or had a shop to wheel in to
after play.

Several years ago, I nearly bought a house on a golf course in suburban
Houston when I lived down there. Looked at several houses on the golf
course, and every one of them had garages with a small extra space for a
golf cart, and a thingee to plug the cart into for recharging. I think
you'll find most people who own golf carts are folks who live on golf
courses and can ride the cart from their garage to the clubhouse.

I live on a golf course and play at least three times weekly (often
more). I like the fact that I can keep all my golfing "stuff" on my own
cart. I have a golf cart garage adjacent to the garage for the cars so
storage isn't an issue. I can go out on the course after hours in the
summer as I please. I do have to pay a "trail" fee to register my cart
for use on the course. Cart ownership is most convienient in my
situation. In fact, my wife, who also plays frequently wants to buy a
second cart for her use.
For the individual that plays once weekly or less, ownership becomes
less cost effective. Also, if you had to leave your cart at the club
and thus unable to leave your equipment on the cart, the convienience
factor isn't there. In cases like this I would think that renting a
cart as need from the club would be the best approach.

10-4, for the reasons mentioned in favor of carts, they seem to be
justified, there are always exceptions.
And too, it is a personal matter - peculiar to those that have them.

Owning your own golf cart is a life style decision not a financial one. If
all you are going to so is play golf, electric is more golfer friendly.
