I agree.
You can get more extensive on this if you want. Pull wither the lower radiator hose or the lower radiator plug and let it drain.
Put the plug back in the radiator, or put the hose back on.
Fill the radiator with all water, let the engine run until it warms up, **** it off. drain again. Repeat until you get pure water coming out. Then refill with dexcool.

Bro., it`s not like you just pull the petcock open and 12 quarts or so fall out, without the right equipment, the coolant in the block stays there. Don`t be like me and read the owners manual expecting the stated amount to be replaceable at home, it is more involved than that.
Good luck,
