Should my next car be an automatic or manual transmission, and what are the advantages of both?

Question:
I'm buying a new car in the near future, probably a medium-large V6 sedan, and I'm not sure whether I should but an automatic or a manual. I've driven a manual all my life, and I was hoping someone could tell me why I should go one way or the other.

What are some things I need to know before buying a used car?

You should buy what you are most comfortable driveing. I have driven a manual since I was 18 and now I'm 32. I'm sick of driving a stick. I don't think you would notice the difference in gas milage and if properly maintained either one will last a very long time. Also, An automatic is much more comfortable to drive in a traffic jam.

1 More fun to drive
2 more control
3 better milage
4 it is cheaper to replace a clutch then to have an automatic transmission rebuilt especially in a front driver
5 If you your auto transmission fluid gets over 350 degrees(375 for synthetic) your fluid loses its lubricating properties
6 manuals transmissions are cool(you can imagine your driving a race car)
7 less people will ask to borrow your car
