Transmission: Use the 'Transmission' filter to make it easier to find the right car. Pick 'Automatic' if you'd rather not change gears or 'Manual' for stick shift. Both are common across rental companies.
Fuel policy: Go for a 'Fair fuel policy' to keep things simple. You start with a full tank and return it full, so you're only paying for the fuel you actually use.
