An auto gives you better control in most instances. The only place it will let you down a bit is on down slopes as you can't use engine braking. But you drive accordingly. Other than that it's personal preference. I prefer a manual but that's just me.

auto is less prone to mud ingression, whereas a manual can get water/mud into the clutch and its bearings.

I'd prefer an auto, on and off road, but I have a manual.
