reading BlueDEF code - can it be THAT fresh?

[rickinAZ]

I just bought a 2.5 gallon box of BlueDEF. The code = GA233040166. I compute that as a manufacture date of March 2nd 2022. [made at the Georgia plant on the 61st day of 2022]. 23 minus 1 equals 2022. 365-304 = 61st day of the year = March 2nd.

Is it possible that a Home depot in AZ can get a shipment that quickly? Or...am a translating the code wrong?

Not sure if you are translating wrong but yeah if it comes right out of the factory on to a truck. I can only expect they don't store for very long if any. Just would expect them to put the newest at the back unless they are selling that much at Home Depot

Only shortage I have read about was Australia had 7 weeks supply at the end of the year because China cut exports to use it for themselves. Australia was going to build a new factory for it when they realized how something like that could shut their trucks down.
