I find this discouraging because I always enjoyed getting better mileage by choosing an MT. Why all a sudden in an Auto getting better mileage?
the gear ratios have changed for manuals in 09
thus making the auto have more MPG

do a search on gear ratios
this has been discussed before. i even posted
a thread with actual speeds and rpms for both
mt and at trannys
