Nothing new really but solid summary of what we've seen already from various sources.

I'm startled to see an HCH with automatic qualifies for $2100, while a "stick" is good for only $1700. What logic could be behind that?

HCH dropped the manual transmission option for '06, anyway.

I think it might be because the credit is partially based on improvement of MPG over a previous year's (top of head - 2002?) city MPG.
The automatic probably had a better percentage improvement than the stick.
