just use regular Mercon, the bottle might read Mercon/Dextron, Mercon V is no good , i beleive it is synthetic. Its noted in the owner manual that Mercon and Mercon V are not interchangeable. Also on the Tranny Dipstick it should read what the truck take's ,mine is an 02 and say;s Mercon.

I think it is the best fluid choice for a 4R100 transmission. It has the MERCON rating, but not MERCON V. That's exactly what the 4R100 needs.
