I've seen the third party stuff, but they make a big point of be Dex-Cool
compatible and GM certified, but they say nothing about Ford compatibility.
I've wondered if Ford and GM use different stuff like they did for Auto Trans
Fluid.
I'm not as worried about the five-year interval as I am about compatibility.
Maybe I'll give the Dex-Cool stuff a try...
