CD4E should be toast. Ford has got that new 6-speed auto in the 500/Montego which should go in the Milan.
Ford is only doing what its competitors are doing. Is there a stick shift V-6 Camry? I don't think the Accord can be a standard V-6 either? I think even Nissan is dropping the stick shift Maxima due to less than 1% of its sales being the 6 speed manual. The only company I know of offering a stick shift V-6 sedan is Pontiac, but who wants to drive a Grand Am or GTP? New model interior looks hideous. Makes the simple Contour interior look like a BMW.
