Gen 5 trivia?
This may be old news but I didn't search (I know.....). I finished up my header and tune install this week and, when I reconnected the battery, this is the default date that appears on the radio. Does the date have any significance to the Gen5?

Didn't know that but why would they use that date on ALL radio resets? I would think it is something more "global" to the Gen5. That's why I put it out there.

MIne defaults to 03/16/2010. May be when the radio was assembled and tested.

Just had my battery disconnected to install my CAI. My radio reset to 3/9/10. Really strange part is ... 3/9 is my birthday. Creepy!!

Mine wasn't starting... had to get very creative, and harness the energy from an electrical storm. When I did that, the date that showed up on my display was, "June 26, 1985." Bam... Doc and I hit 88 MPH, and you know the rest...
