Default Build date?

How do you figure out the build date?

check out the manufacture sticker. Somewhere on the drivers side (I'm drawing a blank, it may be on the door, or door frame I think???). It's the one with all of the tire pressures on it... Has the date right on it too...

Mine is on the driver's door, down from the tire data. It's opposite from the hinges, kinda under the door handle. Mine doesn't say the year it was made, but you can figure it out easy enough. Look at the lower right hand side and you'll see, MDH (month, day, hour). Mine was made Dec eighth at 3PM. My Magnum was made Sep eighth at 6 AM.

Oh... sorry, I forgot they don't post the year. I mean, at this point, it's either an '08 or an '07.... but if you're looking for the year, just run (or decode) the VIN. The VIN can't lie.

I have two different dates on my sticker, one has the month/year and the other date has month/day/hour

Mine's an '07, but it was built in '06. My Magnum is an "05, but it was built in '04.
