Its time for a radiator flush, any special things to do or do I just pull the plug and fill with some new fresh water mix??

pretty straight forward job... just drain & flush with fresh water.. let truck get to operating temp so that themostate opens & flushes whole engine.. 2-3 flushes are probably worth the time.. Also while you are at it.. when was last time you change upper & lower rad. hoses & thermo... well worth the $50 while you are at it.
