If you make the trip frequently--For those familiar with Fruitland Park there is a shortcut that avoids all of the lights. Unfortunately I don't recall the name of the street but you turn on a yellow flashing light off of 466a in Fruitland Park - I think it's route 468 (?) which connects to 44 to 27. It is fewer miles and usually faster than going to Wildwood if you live on the eastern side of The Villages. Perhaps someone has better instructions. You also save a turnpike toll.
