All depends on the usage.
An AOD in a highway driven grocery getter should last and last and last.

A T5 in a powershifted drag bitch might be good for 1 pass, maybe 1000, you never know.

dont trip my little grocery getter. It's not like you're pushing mad amounts of power and banging through the gears. You're chill.
