I dont know what your funds are like but if it were me i would personally get the AOD , a nice shift kit, and stall converter set to like 3000rpm's. Auto tranny with those 3 things will win over a T-5 speed tranny becuz once you start to think about the throws that u "can" miss when driving and the consistancy of your T-5 and your manual shifting vs. something automatic that shifts for you but throws into gear liek a standard the you will notice that a AOD is always more consistant than a T-5.

But on the other hand if u are budgeted and cant pick up all 3 components then i would say a T-5. Just my .02!
