Should I use the expensive fluid from the dealer or just use Dexdron III as written on the dipstick?

Hello, I'm Danny.

If you want to save some money Dexron III works just as good as the dealer brand. I've attached a picture below of the automatic transmission requirements and specifications. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.
