    A couple of them told me it was when they were in school. So, I just thought maybe many others did it too.

    I guess they could all be different. I know a couple O/O's that have them and they are for the yr of the truck I just assumed that was what they all were.

    I've wondered about this too. Thanks for such a definitive answer, guys. LOL!:biggrin_2559:

    Actually, I thought it was the year in which the husband of their children's mother was conceived...
