Synthetic Transmission Fluid

I used Amsoil full synthetic on a recent transmission rebuild for a supercharged Marauder. Great fluid, but its expensive. Amsoil claims to be Mercon V compatible on the label.
Unless you are towing a lot, drag race your truck or live where there are the extreme temperatures (hot or cold), I would think normal Mercon V should work perfectly fine.
Either way, I would install secondary transmission cooler and change the fluid on a regular basis.

Thank you Guys: Yes I will be towing a car & trailer from time to time. I did remove the little transmission cooler and replaced it with a little larger one with a 10" fan. I also installed a Mag hytech DD deep dish pan. I have 4qt of the Royal Purple. If I buy the Amsoil would it be ok to mix the two? Thanks again.
