So i don't know if a lot of you know, but the new ford fiesta gets better gas mileage with the new doulbe clutch automatic transmission than what it gets with the regular manual (stick shift)

... Question is though... Is this the ultimate transmission for Eco modders? Or can we attain better mileage from someone who drives manual transmissions the proper and fuel efficient way?
