The vehicles in this picture all have automatics.
Nearly every municipal bus and trash truck has an automatic. They use Allison transmissions.
Every manufacturer, including Allision has had both bad and good automatic transmissions.
There are very few problems reported with the new Dodge 48RE automatics.
The automatics in the Dodge mini-vans were built by Mitsubishi.
Dodge, ferd and gm ALL have had problems with their automatic overdrive transmissions.
Most automatic transmission problems stem from inproper use of the overdrive feature.
The 727 is still the best auto ever made, Dodge could have done better with the new models.
There are more problems with the clutches in manual transmissions than with automatics, we just expect the clutch to wear, we don't expect the auto to wear.
