I feel like I how I put it looked like I was bashing on DC systems and that was not what I meant.
Yes they can both be started but with the exception of a few odd balls that I have heard about once you disconnect the jumper a DC CDI buggy will die. This isn't a problem if using a booster pack but if the pack dies then your still dead.
I suppose you could have a buddy with jumpers pace you back to the truck lol.
There is nothing wrong with a DC CDI system on a buggy they are easy to maintain and many people like them. They are a great system and I think easier to trouble shoot.
I just prefer to have mine set up AC because the only thing that requires the battery to start is the starter. So because the stator provides spark and power to the AC CDI once you get her started she will stay running even with a dead battery. Since I don't always have a buddy to go with me but I always carry a booster pack this was the logical way for me to go.
