ehh...the auto kind of sucks because it'll stay @ 3,000rpm all day long, but on the other hand, having a torque converter takes all the work out of slipping a clutch when wheeling

be careful keeping the gas floored while powersliding around mud (or doing donuts in snow) because it means a lot of stress on the transmisison with little air cooling = heat buildup = your tranny's enemy
