A manual transmission will generally last longer that an automatic transmission, a manual will be cheaper to maintain as well as repair if anything should happen to it. This of course you know how to use a manual transmission correctly. Automatic transmissions are not very forgiving if not used and cared for properly, but they are generally weaker that a manual transmission.

Thank you! I am older and learned to drive on a stick - so I will be cognizant of shifting.
