I'll toss in my preference for the F/T, but take on board the comments made by Alex. Possibly it depends on the loads you have or think you will encounter.
In Alex's case, maybe a bigger F/T would be better. It would also be interesting to see the others handle his load(s) as well.
In my case I am supporting an SXVR-H16, and the SX CFW chocka full of filters, using the 2" F/T, same as Alex has, with no issues.
In respect of the motor/no motor, the F/T is a great setup. With the motor fitted you cannot focus manually (but then again, why would you?). two Allen head screws later and you have switched, I can do it in the dark) and the manual focus is all go. For imaging, the auto-focus using the motor is something to be experienced.
