Also, Don't hit me - cause I'm not sure how you interpret GM's "paddle-shift". But it's an automatic Tranny first and foresmost. The shifting part is just an added bonus. It can be in any form they please, doesn't have to be paddles - in can be a floor-mounted-shifter-incorporated tap-up, tap-down, Shift stalk incorporated buttons on the Silverados...
I'd rather have the Auto-Shift in the 'Tap Shift' form than as paddles. I don't particularly like them on the steering wheel, just looks awkward and in the way.
