On: Fewer than 3% of cars sold in the U.S. have manual...

I found that when I drove in LA (lots of traffic lights), and drove from NY to SF, having an automatic was really helpful.

I drive a manual every day here in the UK, but when you have to stop/start (traffic, lights, etc), I wish I had an automatic.

But then, I love driving around normally with a manual. It's not really something I think about when driving.
