I've noticed that regardless of make/model, there are always users of both options (when both options are available) from LC's, Rovers, and Mitsubishi's, to Jeeps and US full-size trucks.
So, I'd like to hear the rationale in the context of overlanding (or your other uses for your rig, if applicable) for your use/preference of an auto or manual transmission. Does it change depending on what vehicle/transmission is available? How do features like overdrive, manual/sport/tiptronic shifting on an auto transmission, etc. fit into your choice?
Thanks.
