The shuttle in not a scam in any stretch of the definition. There have been many who have tried to compete and fail. It is a great service that is reliable and works well. There are many other alternatives that most have been covered here. And like everything else each has there pros and cons. If I come in alone, the shuttle is a great value. If I have a group, a rental car is a much cheaper option. With just two of us it can work well either way. Rent an Enterprise car or use the shuttle. Enterprise price structure seems to be dependent on where they have cars. I have paid from $45 to $95 for the same trip. At least the shuttle is the same price all the time. Does any other retirement community have a service like this? I doubt it. And I would bet that when TV is fully built out it will either go away or the price goes up.
