Napa shock question

I know I don't post much.. I did some research and am stumped. I am shopping for new shocks for my93 f250 4x reg.cab long bed. Napa person suggested the Napa fleet shocks... I can't find any info about them. I know Monroe makes the napa shocks. Anyone here had any experience with them? From my research the monroe gas magnum sounds like generally the cost effective choice... But, if the fleet series from Napa is good, then I could save a few bucks...
Any insight would be appreciated.
Adios

I can't remember the name, but I bought the ones with the springs on the outside for about $100 a pair for the back of my F150 from NAPA. They are much better than the $20 apiece ones I put on the front. The clerk called them a "valved" shock.
I would think you get what you pay for. I'm going to change the fronts when I get an extra $100.
I researched their website first, don't remember anything about "fleet" shocks.
