Ford has an opinion about your opinion, at the page bottom:

Ford and Zerex agree. They are compatible. But you do not get the full long life benefit of G-05 until all the old green stuff is flushed. I was thinking of a yearly drain and refill of radiator with G-05 for a few years then I would assume its close to 100% G-05.
I would continue to use the old green stuff in my 94 Camry except its hard to find and I would like to stock a single antifreeze for Jeep and Camry. The 2001 Jeep definitely wants G-05, but it looks like the old green stuff also, maybe prior owner converted factory fill of G-05 to old green stuff.
