Default Tranny Fluid in Automatics

I just noticed that the automatic trans on my xB has a drain plug It has been a long time since I saw a car with one of those :?
Anyway, my first thought was "I can easily put some synthetic tranny fluid in this thing." :D I have used the stuff in all my cars lately and I honestly believe the transmissions performed much better and lasted longer because of the synthetic fluid.
What do others think??

I sell the Machines at company but if you go to a tranny shop they will do it for you. Your toyota dealer may offer the service also. AAmco Transmission shops use the same machine I used on my car. They can do it over there. You may need to bring them the Synthetic Fluid, not sure if they have it. Just call them and find out!
