This may have been discussed before but I didn't find it in the searches I did.

Coolant/Antifreeze. I am amazed at the prices of Antifreeze these days. It used to be 2x as expensive as gas and now it's over 4 times as expensive. I'll turn the whining off now.

Who is the best bang for buck, best performing for corrosion prevention in aluminum and best all around?

I have read bad things about Dexcool. I will be putting this stuff in 4 different cars. My truck, of course, the Vette, Toyota and Nissan. Is there one type that works in all 4 and won't kill aluminum radiators, intakes and heads?

Thanks in advance guys.
