Nancy makes valid points, and there is a major difference between "owning" a copyright, and a tractor or vehicle. Stop and think about it, this would put a damper on not only sales tax, but property taxes, liability, who pays repair, licensing, insurance, you name it. Some are quick to jump on "government motors", but you can bet what is good for the goose is good also for the gander, and if there are profits to be made, it would not just be John Deere, "government motors", but Dodge/Chrysler/Fiat/Ram (whatever they are today), Ford, etc would be right there to jump on the proverbial bandwagon. In todays world, most big manufacturers are all about the profits, and most of the profit today is not necessarily in the sale of vehicles, but in the service departments - just take a look at not only the expansion those dealerships have done to look attractive, but their shop rates. Not sure about anyone else, but some of my experiences with those shops are less than pleasant experiences. Usually when I take a vehicle in, it comes out with more wrong with it than it was when it went in, and I find out I paid a very high shop rate for someone whose only skill is part swapping, and trial and error, and I end up being charged for unneeded items, or they try to "upsell" me things that have nothing to do with what I brought the vehicle in for. With that said, yes, there are honest shops out there, but in my opinion those are the exception rather than the rule. I guess I got off topic a bit, and on a rant, but I somehow doubt the copyright office would have much success in enforcement of vehicle ownership. They have had limited success with enforcing copyrights on other things, and I am like others, in that if I pay for something, I do what I wish with it aside from trying to market it for a profit.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
