i would comment on this, but since they havent released any info to dealers about what they are using, there is no official line yet.

"Coyote uses Ford's new environmentally friendlier organic-acid antifreeze, which is red."
Hmmm. Wonder if Ford is moving to the Dexcool Darkside, or if this is another style HOAT.
Noticed on some other engine pics on other sites that the coolant tank does seem to have red coolant.
Ventureing back to your original question..of course just guessing again here..the only coolant I can think of that might fit into fords line-up would be the G-30/G-12+..one of the lastest generation of coolants, designed for higher performance needs...having no silicates,phosphates and "no" 2-ethyl..unlike the G-48/G-11 or G40/G12++ ...only time will tell..
