Default Which transmission fluid do you like.

I just received my new 700R4 from Bowtie Overdrives. I am really impressed with everything about this purchase. The help and service has been the best I've ever incountered and the transmission is absolutly beautiful.
I'm wondering about filling it with one of those specality transmission fluids on the market or weather to stick with a good brand of regular off-the-shelf fluid.
The folkes at Bowtie seemed to lean toward regular fluid changed yearly. They seemed to be concerned that If you pour in some $7.00/quart stuff, your more likely to run it as long as possiable (longer than you should). They seem to stress that regular changes are more important than super promesses.
Any comments???

I use AMSOIL tranny fluid but still change it at the recommended (by manufacturer) invertals instead of dragging them out.
