the Fit has to push a bigger hole in the air so that is the main reason why it doesn't get as good a fuel mileage as it should (about equal to the Civic)...also the Fit's transmission is geared more for acceleration than most of its competitors

Slaloms favor narrower, front-heavy cars. Moving through them the nose doesn't move side-to-side nearly as much as the rear end of the car.
My site's pricing feature, unlike others, will price every trim of a model with the features you want simultaneously. The result page then compares features across models and trims, and provides before and after price comparisons. Members (membership is free to people who help out with the reliability research) can substitute their own values for features, providing a more accurate feature-adjusted comparison, but most people seem to find the default values close to their own.
Vehicle price and feature comparisons
I also post results from a real-world fuel economy survey to the site. Page for the Fit:
