Glad you love your 465.

when built correctly, an auto tranny 'can' and 'does' crawl and compression brake every bit as well as a standard transmission without the need for that third pedal.

WAY better in the rocks while crawling.
An auto will allow for more finesse with better control on the steeps too.
