Unless you're on the side of the road waiting for a tow truck to take it to the dealer because the engine just randomly imploded... (happened to my Escape with NO tune...)
And I'm almost certain there's a "last flash date" tag in the computer. . .

One man's cheesy is another man's cool. I love the sequential turn signals. When I see a 2010-11 Mustang ahead of me in traffic I try to get behind it in hopes of seeing them turn on. For the record, I also love MyColor, and a variety of cheeses.

I've been changing my colors every few days. I set one of the 3 custom colors to yellow, since yellow isn't in the standard color set (IIRC I think the values I set are R:5,G:5,B:1). As for the other 2 custom colors, 1 is set to a color my wife chose, and the other I haven't decided what to do with it yet.

Currently I've got the Ambient and Gauges set to yellow and Halos set to seafoam.

Reagrding those sequential flashers, here in Europe for example cars require amber/yellow blinkers for turn indicators. As a rare American car at any given time on the highway, red sequential blinkers can be a bit confusing. When moving at 100 mph and changing lanes, usually one blink left and one blink right to pass a car. Not enough time to play musical lights. Last second lane change, blinky blinky blinky (other driver: ohh...he wants to change lanes. Now I get it. Too late!!!). It should be a preference to disable. When a crash or hazard occurs, we activate 4 way flashers. You can see all orange/yellow lights blinking from very far away and it really gets your attention. Add those red flashers and it is really out of place even if non-sequential flashing.
I would rather our LEDs to look like LEDs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQA8clp1asU
