I would so much like a manual over auto, but the deal is, I never learned how to properly drive a manual and don't want to wreck my dad's truck learning... I know how to drive auto. As others have said, it would be so annoying to drive in traffic with a manual. Manual trans are more reliable if you drive it right. If I drove manual I'd have to learn how to hold the steering wheel with my left hand to have my right hand open to shift...
If you can drive an auto right you can get a pretty good acceleration from a piece of crap car. I think I can get my 4 cylinder auto '92 Ford Tempo from 0-60 in 8-10 seconds without over revving the engine between shifts. That's not too bad for an old car that it is. It has terrible pickup going up hills though. It's just how you drive it.
