I have an 88 GT-AOD, I would love to trade it for another 5.0 5 speed.

Toys stay stick, but the Auto's for DD's...I like coffee.


personally so ill stay manual it also a good excuse to not to have to talk to people u dont want to while ur driving! i hate cofee! the reason most americans drink it instead of tea in the morning is the boston tea party we still havent gotten over that after all this time?

I've always like autos better and at times they are faster. However in the specific case of an AOD the tranny itself SUUUUUUUCKS.

Own both, MT 5.0 Notch, AT 5.0 GT... Like someone said nice to have both. I love my MT, I love to adjust power any way I want it... Manual all the way. Even if it has 2.73s.
