DOT 5 will cause pressure activated brake light switches to fail unless a "DOT 5 safe" switch is used. I thought that this was bs, but my sons brake switch failed after less than a year, I believe now. I replaced it with a DOT 5 safe switch, been in a couple of years now.

I have been reading about the different "DOT's", they say that the DOT 5 is very resilient and almost impossible to get out of a system once it is in, and if you go back to DOT 3 or 4 it will jell up and be a big problem. "They" say once you go DOT 5 you pretty much have to stick with it...

I want to say "Load-o-matic" Or something like that.... :D (For pre 57)

I mostly hung out at the HAMB for the last couple of years, although I have visited Ford Barn at times, frankly I have been too lazy to navigate the old site in order to actually "hang out". :D
