wow, sounds like I jumped into a heated discussion.....
To be quite honest, although automatics are generally reliable, I prefer the simple reliability of a manual. And if you know how to drive a stick properly, and don't live in a city, a clutch will last for ages. Once I get a stick shift car rolling, I rarely even need the clutch.
And an automatic does need regular maintenance too. Just ask your owners manual.
