auto tranny reliablilty?

Ive been reading alot on here lately about people having their trannies replaced and its left me concerned about how reliable they are.
How reliable are they? Do I have to worry about having my transmission replaced at 20k miles?

a lot of people that have posted about having their auto trannies replaced are usually the ones who have done nuetral drops a lot, beat the hell out of their tranny (constantly flooring the gas from stops).....just treat your auto tranny good and it will treat you good back.....not much to worry about

just don't do the neutral rev it then drop it into drive crap... that is retarded. you can brake-torque whatever, but even that is not good for the old torque converter.... and adding lots of power with nitrous, turbo etc will definalty shorten the life of your tranny
