Kioti Tractor has installed a "security guard" -- a mechanical man made of tractor parts. Apparently there have only been two made and the other is in South Korea. One worker told me that its eyes glow red, though I didn't see it. It looks like it is watching the highway from the company's parking lot. When I stopped to take photos (with permission), there was another person who drove up and took selfies with the statue and her child! Very cool-looking.
