I found at Pep Boys Valvoline DuraBlend Mercon V for $2.50/qt. Any opinions on this trans fluid?

I got my information from a Ford TSB, 98-8-8. It says not to use Mercon V in the E4OD or the 4R100. It is good to use in the 4R70W.
From other contacts I have, I have been told that Mercon V has caused high wear in E4OD and 4R100 transmissions. You won't see a problem in 14,000 miles, but I'll bet you will wear it out sooner than if you used the correct fluid.
