I go to several large shows where I might cover SEVERAL MILES and use the cart FOUR OR MORE HOURS PER DAY (and lots of starts n stops).......THE ONLYYYYYYYYYY CART THAT WILL COME NEAR ALL THAT MANY MILES AND HOURS PER DAY USE WITH ALL THE STARTS N STOPS IS A GAS.
If youre at say the Florida Flywheelers all day with 4 grown men riding with a lot of starts n stop in that sand !!!!!!! Give me a break NO WAY AN ELECTRIC CART would last all day and all those miles.
If his is overheating or only good for short trips or short times HIS HAS A PROBLEM. Mines an old 1995 Yamaha Gas and I can use it all day for miles n miles and it NEVER gets hot or has a problem.
THAT BEING SAID if you have a newer 48 volt electric cart they can indeed last longer but of course until I run out of gas, theres no way they can go the miles n miles n hours n hours I can go WELL DUH
I use mine in the summer to run the pasture n check fence etc and drive up the road to the neighbors (plus grandkids drive it a ton) and 5 gallons of gas will last seems like half the summer.
So an elec is fine for whats it can do, but if you wanna run all day n miles n miles n miles with lots of starts n stops an elec will eventually run down its batteries while I can still keep going maybe 10 times as much or more till I run out of gas ITS A NO BRAINER IF YOU NEED HOURS OF USE PER DAY N LOTS OF MILES YOU NEED A GAS CART

While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
