Like others said there is a place for both, and it comes down the the individual.
My 55 belair has a powerglide
My Camaro has nothing but will probably get another th700r4.

love it OJ.....(more of those "girly auto's") the fastest street car I ever rode in by far had a full manual valve body auto/with trans brake.....and could pull the fronts off the ground, no problem "pretty wimpy" fer sher.....too bad it wasn't a "real hot rod"
