Shell has this Rotella antifreeze that is guaranteed for the big trucks for like 150,000 miles .... trouble is, that's only about six months in an 18-wheeler. :( so we don't know if it'll last ten years that it would take a vanagon to reach that miles. my guess would be no ... that we still need to replace the antifreeze/coolant every two years or 30,000 miles to get rid of acide buildup and depleted additives (like anti-corrosion). :( unca joel
