electric buggy's of good brands are pretty darn reliable folks, and no smells of oil and gas for critters to pic up on
but again, having one that does both is, IMO the better option

but even GAS one's need a battery to start them these days?
so, your still depending on a battery!, same with your hevicle you drive every day
just saying, battery powered things ain't that bad if you look at them right!
