The Chevy Tahoe with a 5.3 liter engine requires 16.8 quarts of coolant, specifically Dex-Cool orange antifreeze. Prepare to buy at least 16 quarts for a complete refill, priced between $4 and $24 per bottle. You can purchase this coolant at various retail locations such as Wal-Mart, Sam's Club, Sears, AutoZone, O'Reilly's, Pep Boys, or online shops for auto parts. If you opt for a professional mechanic to perform the coolant change, expect to pay an additional $40 to $120 for labor.

Marie mentioned that you should have a minimum of 16 quarts of Dex Cool Orange coolant. Does this coolant come as a pre-mixed 50/50 solution?

I won't receive my paycheck until Friday, and the coolant light in my car turned on yesterday. Is it safe to top off the reservoir with water for now? It's not too low.

Nope, you should fill the coolant up to half of the capacity. After flushing, there might still be around 6 to 7 quarts of water left inside, so top it off with 2 gallons of pure coolant and check.
