Low mileage

I rarely drive my Excurison 2005 4x2 V-10 3.73 rear, only 14,000. miles on it but use it for towing with it mostly. I do change the oil at least every 2,500 miles or every 6 mons. geting ready to drain the coolant in it soon. Is there any better coolant i could use then stock because i know coolant will break down & turn in to acid & eat at engine parts . Any help is welcome.

Thanks', Don

Various additives may help...

You might look at this additive.

BG Products, Inc.

BG offers a warranty, sort of a long term repair insurance - see more info below.

BG Findashop

Insert the usual disclaimer here - no association with the product - yadda, yadda, yadda.

I do have it installed in my Ex at 35,000 miles.
