25 MPG bad? what engine is it? The 3.5 says 29 hwy.
I drive a std tranny quite a bit and in stop & go traffic, the nightmare of chain-reaction bumper crashes keeps me off the fellow's bumper in front and with my brake on unless I'm moving--just as with my auto tranny.

What about you other folks? Brake on or brake off at stop?

PS What I don't like about the stick in heavy traffic is constant use of the clutch. Aggravation!
