Kendall is now making Dex 6 under their own label (I have not seen any yet). In the Oct. 06 MOTOR magazine clip it states :

"Kendall DEXRON-VI automatic transmission fluid has been introduced to comply with the specification upgrade mandated by General Motors. GM introduced DEXRON-VI in April 2005 as the factory fill ATF for 2006 model year passenger cars and light trucks. The upgraded fluid has significantly longer life than current DEXRON-III "H" fluids due to improvements in oxidation stability, friction durability, shear stability, and foam resistance. The new ATF is backward-serviceable for all DEXRON applications dating back to 1949, and for all GM automatic transmissions that require earlier generation DEXRON or Type-A fluids. The company will continue to offer DEXRON-III "H" qualified products in the marketplace until Dec. 31, 2006."
