Royal Purple ATF

Royal Purple ATF
It's about that time on my truck to give it a tranny flush. I want to change the fluid type to Royal purple, but I have heard some rumor that it is not good in ford trucks. I do some towing with my truck, but when I do its a heavy load, otherwise, it is just normal driving (with a lead foot I would add) So, what I am asking is it safe to put royal purple ATF in the transmission?

I buy all my Royal Purple on Ebay. 5 gallon 5w-20, and quart-case Trans Fluid.
I flushed the Mercon V out two months ago, and did something like 18 quarts to refill...I've got a Mag-Hytec DD pan, and an auxiliary spin-on trans filter.
The truck already has a separator plate-but even so, it shifts better now, over the Mercon V.
The motor oil is the best I've ever used. I burn NO oil.
I also run RP in my motorcycles.
I'm pretty sold.

I bought my filter from Dieselsite.com, although I don't see it listed there anymore. It uses a large spin-on, and its mounted up by the trans cooler.
Filters, but is also directly in-line to catch debris, should the trans blow up, from entering the torque converter.
It has a gauge that tells you when flow is restricted, and the filter needs to be changed-which has never happened.
