Then you need to gear up for defending farmers... a tractor where the diagnostics are purposely locked down to force you to use the manufacturers repair facility is a HUGE liability... you can’t just drive one of these to the dealer ,, they have to come to you... and what if the tractor breaks down and you miss a harvest that you must do RIGHT NOW because the forecast is for a week of rain if you don’t finish it NOW. This isn’t a video game where the stakes are a few wasted hours by a teenager this is $$MILLIONS$$ of dollars in hard losses.
