Synthetic all the way! I think around town driving is the worst thing for a tranny. All that stop and go and constant switching of gear can really take a toll on the fluid. I used Mobil 1 which was less then $5 a quart and followed the Bay 13 procedures. I had no problems at all and the results were noticeable. Besides, synthethics are suppose to last about three times as long so you don't have to change it again for awhile. Its worth it in my opinion. Go for it...
