I usta use any of the the 50/50 pre-mixed coolant that sez it meets the Ford Specs, on the jug. (IIRC, Prestone did)

You can use/add water but it'll dilute the mix ratio, some.

Ever think about switching to the Gold coolant ? I did . Good stuff.. No additive issues now.

You might want to use distilled water. Tap water contains minerals that will lead to scale buildup in you'r cooling system. Around here distilled water is around $1 a gallon. Cheap little bit of insurance to help you'r truck live longer. And X2 on what Big Joe said about the gold coolant.
