Coolant Usage Question
Since the middle of September and about 7K miles later the coolant level has dopped. The beginning level was at the top of the fill line in the resovoir (spelling) and now it is a tad below the middle of the tank. Someone told me that it is normal to evaporate some coolant. Is that much normal though?

Since it's Monday and I've been bombed for 12+ hours by dumb questions it's my time to pay it forward 
what coolant should we be using to top off the reservoir? My first guess is orange Motorcraft, but honestly I haven't looked it up in the book.

Don't mix gold with orange or green under any circumstances.
