Changing engine coolant

My manual Yaris has about 125k miles on it, so I decided it's time to change the coolant. Haven't checked the color yet, but I want to be safe. The dealer sold me 2 gallons of super long life coolant (pre-diluted), but the manual says the car needs 5.1 quarts (US). I just think this is stupid. I'm going to have 3 quarts sitting around for years until I need to change again! I'm sure other people have had this experience, so I'm curious, what did you do? Is there a way to get by with just 1 gallon and dilute it with something?
