Coolant/Antifreeze type needed
This will be the first time flushing the system on my new 5.0, it's my understanding that new coolant was used by ford after MY11, I originally used Prestone 50/50 green in my 07 for flushes, what's the auto store equivalent to the orange that ford has in the manual for our 5.0s. Thanks.

Preston's DexCool meets Ford spec WSS-M97B44-D for the coolant in my 2012 GT, so I'm perfectly comfortable using it. Kinda like using motor oil that meets Ford specs. It will be fine.
