On the subject of programming, my impression from a couple of dozen rentals in the US is that Mopar boxes are programmed by enthusiastic drivers, GM by economy freaks, Ford somewhere in between.

Can program the manual box for all these settings on the fly, computer never goes on the fritz assuming the limp home mode (OK for about 4km, longer needs towing) and then requires a dealer reset for no reason the dealer can explain. Never had this problem with a manual gearbox.
