I don't know about the 150K mile claim but it definitely lasts well over 5 years.

The Dexcool I drained out of the ole GTP below looks as if it came right out of a new container of Dexcool. No visible contaminants whatsover. However, as you can see even I don't take any chances and replaced it with the Prestone Extended Life.



But it is info worth sharing and shows that not all of us have bad experiences with Dexcool. Just my two cents.
