Cheaper Alternative to Toyota Red or Pentofrost A1

[user52165]

Title says it all. Don't want to mix colors. Is there a good product for less?

The cheapest I have ever found is the actual Toyota LLC at CarQuest, $26/gallon. Pentofrost is about the same at my local O'Reillys. $1 for dH20 at the grocery so $27/2 gallons coolant.

The Zerex works out to be a tad more because it's diluted. I like to go 55/45 and the concentrate lets me do that, Zerex does not. May not be important to you in CA.
