Because one person has a transmission problem? Please explain your logic. I can see how if this was a used vehicle, the 'manual are less complex and therefore less likely to break down' argument, but for a new vehicle, how is it that it is more likely to break down just because it's automatic?

I'd be curious to see how many service calls there are on NEW automatic vs manual transmissions. Until I see a study that shows new manual transmissions are more reliable, I call BULL$HIT!
