Possible answers:
1. Your car's ECM has an Intelligence all of its own just like the deranged car in Stephen King's "Christine", Hasselhoff's "K.I.T.T." in the "Knight Rider" or the evil "HAL 9000" in Kubrick's "2001: a Space Odyssey".
Should this be the case, get rid of your car immediately (without letting it know what you're planning to do!).
2. One of your enemies (some Ricer you thrashed, or perhaps even a "friend" who's sick with envy over your Stang and now hates your guts?) spiked your bud with a hallucinogen and you just THINK it's adjusted for D.S.T.
Rehab, detox, and lawsuit.
or, hopefully:
3. You simply forgot to reset it last December and failed to notice it...
"tuned in to the Nuclear Clock"- like a $25,000 Patek chronometer?
JEEZ...!!!

Anyone else notice that the clock in there car changed to the correct time automatically? Anyone know if our car clocks are tuned in to the Nuclear Clock and are adjusted automatically like some wrist watches? I swear my clock adjusted itself.

No, but I was a bit surprised that my Windows XP changed the time on my computer!
Hope they don't change the time on the clock at work until tomorrow afternoon! It'd be nice to spring forward an hour of work!
