Unless something has changed in the last couple of months I have regularly hired an Avis car at Orlando Airport and driven to The Villages using my own SunPass with no other charges. Avis ask if you want to pay their fees or have your own SunPass. I always decline and use my SunPass Pro. On the hire car windshield there is their SunPass device but you have to make sure it’s turned to OFF otherwise you will get charged. You do have to ensure the hire car registration is entered into your own SunPass account at the airport before leaving and this picks up the charge provided the fixed one on the windshield is turned off or you get charged twice!

I visit for a few weeks and $10 X 30 days is $300 for one round trip to the Airport. So I decline the toll package and take the non-toll route to the Villages, which adds 40 minutes but worth it.
