DOT 4 brake fluid?

So I just bought a new Lincoln MKC. As I was under the hood looking things over I see the brake resv to put in dot 4 only.

Anyone one what is different, when the change over occurred?

Thanks for the link. I guess I have high performance brakes since the speedo goes to 160.

caught me by surprise.

Hey, they also have a DOT-5 for the F-53 chassis used in motor homes.

Guess that is something I was not familiar with as when it got that big we had air brakes.
