I don't want to pay the rental car company $7 a day for a Sun Pass when I only plan on driving on the Turnpike twice while visiting The Villages.
Last time I rented from Enterprise, they did NOT charge a $7 fee. They told me to just drive thru the Sunpass lane and they would photograph the licence plate and send the tolls to Enterprise. They then charge you the actual tolls in another charge....no penalties.

Make sure you verify, when you rent, just to make sure there hasn't been a change in policy.

Hope you have a nice visit....weather's a little better than Chicago.
