Some people say it causes soft pedal, but I run it even in my Jeep. It is more money, about $ 8-$10 a pint, but it also doesn't absorb moisture like Dot 3 fluid, so parts don't rust. The same brake fluid has been in my '27 for 17 years, and I still have good pedal.
But the big thing I like is that if you spill it on a painted surface it wipes right off. Regular fluid eats paint immediately, and is hard to remove if it does. As far as mixing it, I think there is some flushing procedure to get all the old fluid out, but I am not sure what that is. I started with a brand new, empty system, so I didn't have to do that.
