I didn't answer the manual vs. automatic not only because I couldn't figure out which end was which, but also because it depends entirely on the vehicle and traffic conditions. Sports car on open highway or motorcycle on deserted twisties? Manual all the way! Toting the kids around town at rush hour? Droning along the interstate with 1948973546 other drivers? That's why God invented the automatic transmission (and cruise control, in the latter case).
ETA: Actually a Ferrari with the F1 transmission beats 'em all, but we won't have another one of those in the garage again for a while. ;-)
