He referred me to the Lippert Towable RV Manual which states "Type 'A' Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) is utilized and will work. ATF with Dexron III or Mercon 5 or a blend of both is recommended by Lippert Components, Inc."
We used Valvoline DEX/MERC to refill ours.

At least he was honest I guess. It's a shame that the people putting these things together care so little about what they do. I've been incredibly disappointed in our rig.
Anyway, thanks for the info. Headed out of town without the rig to look at motorcycles this weekend, so I'll check into this on Monday.
