Saw this while looking up 3400 stuff and was a little surprised. Hope I can link this without getting in trouble.

How long is a company liable for a product? Where is consumer accountability?
Not wanting a heated discussion at all just interesting. Somewhere along the line we learned some common sense even though I don't have the market cornered. I guess if something happened to me I hope my wife would understand I knew I was taking a risk voluntarily in my hobby.
The gist is that someone ground started a 3400 and the switch was either bypassed or transmission was worn to where it still started and the tractor killed him. I feel for the family but suing seems a little extreme.
