Default Mobile 1 Dextron 3 ATF vs Dextron VI?

Im planning to flush my PS today and i was wondering which should i buy? I can't seem to locate Dextron 3 anywhere they only have Dextron VI or Synthetic ATF. Or should i just go to toyota and buy their brand of ATF?

Thanks in advance

Yea, they dont make Dextron 3 anymore, it has been replaced by Dextron 4. Stick with Mobil 1 ATF, or find a good quality D4.

Dexron III was replaced with Dexron-VI. There's no such thing as Dexron-IV.
