    Re: Best AntiFreeze..

    Since we all run GM motors you are supoesto to use a Dex-cool or Dex-Cool compatible antifreeze in our cars. You cna go the xtra mile and get Royal Purples Purple Ice if you want to, but if not then just go to your local auto parts store and get some Prestone Dex-cool fluid.

      Use what is recommended for your vehicle. Orange I'm guessing.

                    i would get the dex-cool compatible stuff
                    cause you might still have some dex-cool crap in your system

                        Check to see what is recommended for your car bud. Im sure its the Dex-cool which is a reddish-orange color.
