Coolant - Prestone "All make, all model"

[dork17]

I noticed that my coolant reservoir is nearly empty. Popped the rad cap off, and rad is full. The reservoir dipstick is dry, but the reservoir appears to be quite small. Has anyone used the "all make, all model" jug of prestone for topping up your coolant? The specs of the coolant say that it is compatible with existing OAT coolant. However, searching the forums, people seem quite adamant on ONLY using Mopar coolant. Thing is, that stuff is nearly 80 bucks a jug where I am. And my top off will only be about a quart, give or take.

Curious what others experiences are with the prestone, if any.

Mopar explicitly states do not use the type of coolant that says it's safe to mix with any coolant. Not sure where you are located but mopar oat is on Amazon for about 25 bucks a gallon with free prime shipping.
