Solidworks or AutoCAD Preference?

Hey guys, I currently have both Solidworks Personal Edition and the AutoCAD equivalent right here on my desk. My friend's dad works for a company that sells drafting software.

Does anyone have a preference for either program in specific? Are there any weaknesses or strengths that one has that the other does not? I plan to use one of these softwares to draft most of the custom fabricated parts on our robot.

I currently already have experience using the reliable, but outdated PTC Desktop, and the newer PTC Wildfire.

Thanks for your input in advance guys!
