What kind of coolant does it take it appears to be orange or pink, is this
something that needs to be filled and flushed by the dealer or jiffy lube
or similar place? I know GM has dexacool but I did not know of ford using
any type other then regular green coolant. It appears that it is below the
line in the little see thru resivior under the hood

I think you got extended life coolant that can't be mixed with green
coolant.
You probably need to check the service manual to see what kind you need
to get. It has to be compatible with what you got already.
Suggest to avoid Jiffy Lube like a plague. Google for "jiffy lube
cheating"
