50/50 pre-mixed is useful in a pinch since distilled water isn't that readily available in some locations

Am I missing something here? whats wrong with 50/50 premix?
Oh unless you don't want to pay extra for water?

This kid is awesome. I wish I had known about this site when I got my first Jeep. Stick with us Jr, we'll learn ya! This site is a great tool to have. I also have learned a lot from a magazine called JP. It only features Jeeps. Just FYI.

That is unfortunate. Its just way more profitable for stores to carry 50/50. And people are generally too lazy to mix their own coolant... it is a pain to find an empty 1 gallon bottle, though.

Thanks! I came across this site in 2010? I think it was 2010. Didn't have my Cherokee then, it was still lonely in good ole Cali. But, thanks! I've heard about that magazine your talking about, but never signed up for a subscription.
