Default Coolant Flush

Decided to look at my coolant reservoir tank today and noticed orange slush building up. Looks like a bad milkshake so I'm thinking about flushing the coolant and refilling her back up. Is there already a thread or a step by step diy I missed for the 07 ss or is the process the same for any vehicle? Thanks in advance

They don't have the petcock on the radiator (at least none that I could find). So you have to go for the bolt in the engine block near the oil filter, and hook a hose to the upper radiator hose.

It was honestly looking like too much of a pain, so I advised my father to take his to a shop to get it flushed.

Not exactly what I wanted to hear Chibi hahah buy I appreciate the advise! I saw a video somewhere a while back and they made it look pretty darn easy. Just can't seem to find that video anywhere anymore
