I'm actually so curious about this now (and in awe of someone else's incredibly impressive math skills), I just *have* to go read Allen's answer!

Subject: Question to answer re: fuel economy
Good morning Answerlanders,
A patron has a question for us:
"If a manual transmission gets five fewer miles per gallon than a continuously variable transmission (both city and highway), how many miles would I have to drive before the continously variable transmission pays for itself in saved fuel economy (based on average driving habits)? In other words, I'll lose 5mpg for getting a manual transmission but the manual is $800 less than the CVT. How many miles would I have to drive before I recoup $800 in fuel savings if I bought the CVT instead of the manual?"
