It's special because it is in a Ford! No really, as long as you use a good name brand coolant, Zerex, Prestone, Texaco, ect. you should be fine. If you want to be on the safe side, go to a Ford dealer and ask to see a gal. of their antifreeze and jot down the "meets or exceeds" bla bla bla specs. Then see if the aftermarket antifreeze at least meets those specs. I called my local Ford dealer and they said they are selling Texaco brand right now because they got such a good deal on it. So it really is not all that important, just flush your system out every 2 years and replace the coolant and you will be fine.
