I purchased a 89 Ford Bronco from a Sherriff's sale two weeks ago for 300 dollars. I drove it home, I was going to change the transmission fluid but an old school mechanic said to reuse my old ATF because I could burn up the transmission if I use new ATF. Is there any truth to that statement?

NO this wrong. The new fluid will hold better pressure and you won't have any of the contaminants in the old fluid.
