Don't know if you guys have heard this yet...
The coolant change plan for the new Honda Van I got last year:
Drain / fill radiator (approx 50% of the coolant) at 120,000 miles or 10 years, then every 60K or 5 years after that!
I think that's GREAT if the stuff will actually hold up that long.
Makes me wonder if the "5 year" part of the requirement for the Dexcool/Prestone/Peak/other long life coolants is very conservative...if a company like Honda is OK with twice the time period but fewer miles (120K vice 150K).
