good point its red now... Im still old school though, my caprice has the green stuff in it because i didnt want to put the red junk back in when i changed the radiator. through all my reserch, green is the same as or better then red... and cheaper. But you win, it would be red.

Most people switch to green after 100k or so. I think it is the thing to do, for the reasons you mentioned and i have seen a few cars where the red coolant turns to rust...

Old school is cool though
