Yes.. I paid the same.. my napa or oriely's have zerex for 13bucks..
I only went to toyota because I called honda dealer next door and the stupid kid said their coolant is 11.99 a gal. When I got there an older man said 22 bucks a gallon.. I said I called an hour ago and some kid said it was 11.99.. He said there are only 2 of them there. I gave the kid a dead look while he was sitting there. Dumbass.. I was going to call him out on it but it was not worth it. Its the principal. Its why I called before I went. kinda defeats the purpose.
Yes I agree its not worth it to buy other than OEM for the price difference. Id kick myself if aftermarket coolant cause my water pump to wear prematurely. My truck had it replace before I bought it. at 120k. I want it to last another 100k.
My acura just reached 100k. I dont plan on changing the water pump anytime soon. maybe 150k or when I have time.
Just a gripe of prediluted coolant costing 20 bucks a gallon. Id gladly pay that for the concentrate, that they no longer sell.
