If it Toyota red is an overpriced version of silicate and phosphate free antifreeze, you can use Prestone Extended Life. It is orange in color and passes GM and DC ratings and Toyotas as well.

It's OK to use, but if you do so, make sure the coolant system has a complete flush (don't forget the overflow bottle) before replacing with the 2 year green coolant. If there have been no problems with the current type of 5 year red/orange coolant, I would continue using.

if you choose to use "green' antifreeze open the block drain on the left side of the engine and flush system completely [if toyota red is available to you; use it.] toyota red and dexcool are not the same. [ one last note : to inhibet corrosion the Ph should be 7]

It's fine to use regular anti-freeze, but both will work.
