Default AMSOIL Propylene Glycol Antifreeze?

Hi I just wanted to know if anyone has used this stuff? Also I wanted to know what was the difference between Propylene Glycol antifreeze and Ethylene-glycol antifreeze which is what the toyota long life coolant is. I'm just curious because my car is at around 96,000 miles and I know it's time to change the coolant, I payed like $30 for the amsoil coolant but I'm having second thoughts about putting it in my car because Im not too sure if it will mess anything up.

Just stick with the toyota pink coolant. I'm not 100% sure but I think if you use the AMSOIL antifreeze you may need a complete flush before you can run it.
