Default Lifetime Coolant!!???

recently saw a blurb about a lifetime coolant in super chevy magazine. the brand name is evans. it's called evans ngp plus. it's guaranted not to boilover & last the lifetime of the engine, non-toxic to animals & environment. boiling point is 375 degrees, freezing point -40. uses no water which will free engine from electrolysis & allow it to perform normally under etreme conditions. also operates in a no or low pressure system (less than 7.0 psig) which greatly reduces strain & wear that pressurization places on hoses, pumps & seals. was thinking of replacing the dex-cool. anyone familiar with it??

Yeah, and I remember when anti freeze was referred to as permanent.. Why would you want to keep the old stuff in there when its so easy to replace the coolant????
