>From my experience, Dodge auto transmissions hold up very well, have an
'86 ram with 100k + miles on it, and it will still smoke the tires if you
floor it, never had any work done on it besides a new pan seal (Which I
consider normal maintenance). So if you're considering getting an auto,
my advice would be to get it.
