Hardly an expert on this, but if money is not a showstopper, I'd include a rental car. Contrary to what a lot of folks think, TV is not a self-contained island. Yes, the "campus" here is remarkable and one could well survive without ever leaving the facility. However, TV is a part of a larger area and Lady Lake, Wildwood, Leesburg, and even Ocala are integral to it. A visitor should really experience the horse farms, shopping malls, many different restaurants, farmers markets, and other features not golf cart accessible. Gives a much better picture of what this place really is.

However, if the purpose of the trip is just a golf vacation with swimming, tennis, and town square dancing, no car is needed.
