So does manuals usually get lower MPG than automatics?

Usually manuals get better MPG then autos, but it has a lot to do with how you drive it. My dad is somehow able to squeeze more out of my manual car then I have ever been able to, I don't know how he does it!

My best tank is 25.5 (steady 60-65 MPH over about 100 miles), worst is 15.8 (mostly in town and with less than 500 miles), and most recently a 500 mile drive west from Detroit that averaged 23.8. I now have 2200 miles on the car.
