Automatic goes against both of your criteria, reliability and mileage. It's really not that hard to learn, I learned by driving my automatic first car down to the dealership and trading it in on a manual. There was a time when there was no such thing as an automatic, and the manuals back then were harder to work as they weren't synchronized. People managed to do it, even women.

Duct tape heals all wounds

That is true, however there is areason you see more autos than manuals today, even hybrids of auto/manuals. Mileage means different things to different people, I'm quite happy getting 40 out of my 4 cyl stick, billcnc matches my 40 in his auto, I'd say thats a wash. I'm pretty sure reliability is about the same regardless. Just another point of view.
