Actually, my issue is lazyness....not differing opinions.
Fact: his question (of the automatic tranny) is addressed in multiple tests of larger tires. He just didnt want to look and see deeper than the first post.

Instead of checking the link provided and spending time reading and learning, he wants to be spoon feed. There are atleast 4 very well documented larger tire tests with 3 being automatics.

ps. Ive driven a Taurus. I've driven a SHO. BIGG DIFFERENCE. And the best I got out of the taurus was 28mpg. The problem w/ the tauras is it cant be driven 'egine on, in neutral' the tranny doesnt drop the idle.
