I'm a bit of a beer snob. Arrogant Bastard is my first choice, or just about any nitro pour. But, if I'm wrenching, I can pound the MGD and/or Bud Light all day

Derned if that wasn't spot on! The clutch releases smoother and cleaner, and finding neutral has never been easier. I change the primary fluid when I change engine oil, so I'm not concerned about any longevity issues.
Interesting, I wondered if regular Dexron would work in there.

I'm not sure about how the lube end of the dextron will work out in the long run...
