Yes, I have noticed the need for a self service car wash.

What about a night club catering to the 45+, High end, Something you would find in Vegas.
Open after 9 and stays open until 12-1. I know, most Villagers go to bed at 9, lol, I think there are a good number that would like a place to dance into the night. mostly Friday and Saturday crowd.

Brownwood/Wildwood area for a restaurant. Good buffet restaurant. Meeting room for clubs, seminars, etc.

At night?

I'd suggest a combo self-service full service wash. Have a full serve bay and 2 self serve bays. The only real full serve wash is up by Spanish Springs. I'd guess there are half of TV residents from Lake Sumter south. I'd use a full serve wash at least once per month if one was closer to where I live - south of 466A. As it is, I use self serve about 3x per month.

By the way, my car manufacturer recommends a "soft touch" self serve wash. The "touchless" washes use stronger chemicals that will damage the finish and paint.

Ditto that! A really good pizza place would clean up. There is nothing like what we had in the Chicago area down here. Aurelio's Pizza (from the Chicago area) has two franchise locations in Florida (Estero and Naples I believe). It's an outstanding product. You may want to look into a franchise with them.

Car wash is a great idea.

I agree with Goldseekur~ pizza pizza!

I second the idea for an Aurelio's Pizza. Either that, or a Hungry Howie pizza take out a little closer to the center of The Villages (e.g. maybe along 466). There are 2 Hungry Howies, one in Wildwood and one at the corner of 441 & 42 so both the south and north ends are covered but the center of TV is open. And the only Aurelio's in Florida is in Naples and Ft. Meyers. With all the people from the Chicago and Indiana area that are in TV, that would surely be a hit.

I love pizza, but I do not include Hungry Howies in that category. I have not been exposed to Aurelio's since I'm from Boston, but it sounds like it might be worth a try.

Is Uno's worth considering?

I would suggest you don't listen to any of these suggestions. Do your own research and good luck!!

Isn't there anything you'd suggest? The OP asked for suggestions as part of his/her research.

The answer is driving everybody up the wall. Incentivize a driver's safety school. Save on your policy if your past a certain age and graduate from a driving simulator without running anyone over and of course several hours of book learning skills. Can you imagine the pride this could build in people and the chance to teach them in an orderly fashion how to properly negotiate different Villages road situations without blowing someone's wig off. And even though they have to pay if they save on their insurance...Winner, winner, chicken dinner. You'll be a billionaire. Open this next to a carwash where the people drying the car are clothed, topless, wearing a speedo. Have a menu. mix & match. Best of luck to you. Probably better off putting your money into Lobster futures.:1rotfl:

Thanks I will look into them

A refreshing and interesting topic. I agree it is difficult to find a good pizza here....although a "good pizza" is different for folks, contingent on where you are from. N.Y.C. folks want the thin style, while folks from Chicago want a deep dish.

There are not a lot of ice cream places around. Also, not a lot of coffee/donut places around. Both would be wonderful.

I like the driving school idea....you can focus on "how to drive in roundabouts" and "how slow vehicles should stay in the RIGHT lane", etc, etc.

Perhaps a "Camp Bow-Wow"...a fancier place for folks to keep pets when they travel. The ones up north are very successful...

Perhaps a mobile car/golf cart detailing service where one comes to the home to detail a car so the homeowner does not need to drive it anywhere.

Anyway, just a few ideas....perhaps more will come after I had some coffee. I have found that if one is honest, provides a good service and does what they say and say what they do, returns calls and actually shows up when promised you can do well. Good luck! Frank
