[QUOTE="KDM, post: 335262, member: 314"] A 48 volt system if using 6 volt batteries such as trojans will run you around 1500-1700. Those particular batteries have a 5-10 year life expectancy with an 80% discharge rate. The question of costs have to compare that 1700 bucks with how much gas, oil, and lube you use on your gas powered UTV. I burn between 500-1000 bucks on my ATV right now just in fuel per year. So battery costs to me aren't much of a deterrent. I'm more looking for use limitations such as power hauling or towing, going up hills, speed, and general durability winter or summer. [/QUOTE]
