the NV3500 takes a proprietary oil that only MOPAR sells. Funny thing is I
looked through the service manual's maintenance schedule and it does NOT
call for a change throughout 120k MI plan B. However, it does call for the
manual trans that comes with the v6. I bought the oil and plan on changing
it because I have scratched a few times.

Subject: DML: Synthetics in NV3500
Someone mentioned that they had noticed that people started having
problems with their tranny once they started using synthetic.
I perused the DML archives, and didn't find much on this.
I asked the tranny guru at a local Dodge dealership, and he arrogantly
reprimanded me for even thinking of using synthetics, " the Chrysler
engineers designed it to run with a certain type of fluid, do you think
you know more than they do?" Thinking this man is nothing but an
engorged phallus, I don't quite believe him.
So, I'll ask the experts...
What do people use out there, and what's the conventional wisdom on it?
