So, what makes you think it's not BS YOU'RE swallowing? Who "educated"
you on the subject of antifreeze? Somebody has convinced you that
you need to spend more for their antifreeze. You also weren't
listening when I said that I've used Peak for years with no problems.

Why pay even a few dollar more when it's not necessary? None of my
manuals say to a avoid the phosphate or silicates. If the Peak
and Prestone products were as bad as you think, they'd be out of
business within a year.
