I found the manufacturer date, Its on the bottom of the door sticker just
like you said. Born on March 24 2000 at 5am. That's a Saturday, I guess
there were cranking them out back them to be building on a Saturday.

Here it is:
Top center of the tag inside the door has the month & year of manufacturer. On the bottom left corner, you'll find "MDH" in real small type, under the barcode. Next to that is a 6-digit sequence. It breaks down as:
MM - month of manufacture DD - day of the month HH - hour of the day
My truck has 3-99 on the top of the tag, and MDH 030211. So it was built in the 11th hour of March 2, 1999. I took delivery on March 19.
Incidentally, your paint code is down there next to the MDH as well.
