I traded a 5-speed manual VW Passat for my 08 Yaris with an auto. It may be a little less spiriting to drive but also a bit more civil. I bought a Jeep about two years prior, and went with the auto as they are better on the trail, and now I have become a big fans of auto transmissions. You can shift a little with the auto, going into '3' and even '2' at the right speeds (the latter being <20 MPH); but no matter how hard you try, you will never be able to get a manual transmission to shift by itself!

Cheers! M2
