Does anyone know, besides the dealership, where the best place is to buy the stock coolant for the Marauder? Also how many gallons does the system hold?

I couldn't find motorcraft at my local flaps, but I did find an equal to OEM.
It's called Zerex G-05.

Its even the same Gold/Yellow color.

Actually, the Ford factory coolant is G-05, made by BASF, so any brand of G-05 will be the same.

According to the owner's manual, page 211, the coolant capacity is 14.6 qts.

Just get yourself 2 gallons of G-05 and mix with 2 gallons of distilled water; and you will have plenty, with some left over for top-offs.
I got mine at NAPA (as Advance A/P in LaGrange doesn't carry it) for about $16. per gallon or so.

Go buy two gallons of Honda Blue from Honda, you will thank me.. Its not cheap but money well spent. I use it in anything that is aluminum or cast block w/ aluminum heads. this stuff is the best you will find and it comes out 50-100k from now as good as it went in. Take a gander into the system every 10k and you will see what I mean..

Anti freeze never really wears out... but the additive package will over time.

Is Zerex G-05 a high mileage coolant like Dexcool is for GM products?
