My '88 F150 5 speed also called for Mercon fluid. I had the same reaction as Davisote untill I read the manual and asked yet another dealer. Mercon is correct and it works quite well. I had 198K miles on it when I traded it and never had any gearbox problems (just clutches, but that's a different topic).
