People are still definitely pulling good numbers out of AT Fits, but the MT will allow you to actually excercise hypermiling techniques to the fullest.

Most of my driving is what I consider high-speed backroads... Hilly/twisty backroads with 45mph speed limits. I don't drive on sustained flat highways more than once a week. I suppose the manual would be better for that type of driving... and that is what I want anyway.
