I got my '04 SXT with a 5-spd... I'm looking to flush it out and replace the fluid in the trans... what's the best thing I should throw in it (reliability/performance)?

Mopar tranny fluid only!

go with a full sythetic. i recommend amsoil, but redline or royal purple will work as well.

Would it be safe to say that the Royal Purple or AMSOil may be a slightly better choice than the OEM Mopar stuff? I figure my car came with Mopar in it, and when it's cold out I definitely can feel a big fluid difference in the tranny... BTW, would that be ATF+4?
