I like my 48RE. I actually wonder if I'd like a 6 speed auto because I don't think I'd ever know which gear I was in. I've always had manuals and almost got another one but thought it was a lot of work to drive when I test drove it (I've got short legs and that clutch travel is long). I'm getting lazy.

Its ok, I dont like the hunting for gears when it downshifts though, or the slow upshift occasionally...
But it beats rowing gears in 5pm traffic...
I had enough of that in my '97. Its fun, but it gets old.
Once I do either a Goerend or ATS I wont worry about it...

I made out like a bandit with the rebates they were running. I got a little more than $10,000 off the sticker price on the new one. I bought the 06 auto for $31,000. They gave me $31,800 for it with 15,000 miles on it. I had to Haggle with them for about 3 hours, but that's a given... No regrets here. I always do A LOT of homework before going into a dealership. If you don't know what youre doing, you can almost count on getting screwed.
