If you are renting a car:

All rental cars are off-site at the airport. You will need a link with the shuttle to the specific car rental agency you are using. You should be able to get directions from the airport to Town & Country. We should add a section in there about the advantages and disadvantages of using the pre-paid gas and how you buy gas in California.

Fuel: When you rent a car in California, you have the option of pre-paying for gas on the return trip. Just so you know, there are some limited options in terms of gas availability, so you may wish to take the refill option there. Often it is a cheaper rate of gas, and in the California gas stations near Fashion Valley Road, they do not accept credit cards. You must have cash or a debit card to pay for fuel. Plan ahead! They also have a different kind of nozzle than other states, so just be aware of these things. Price of gas was between $4.29 and $4.49 per gallon in mid-May 2011.
