So do you really believe that CCH is incapable of ever producing a good product again? I just purchased complete sets of all their aliens and sent them to our consultants who x-ray pipeline welds just to see. Everyone of them came back good. Then I had them tested on a strain gauge just to see what they would fail at. Every single one broke at the head or the axle well above their rating. The larger ones broke at more than double their rating.

Yea, I remember the Pinto, the Yugo and the Firestone tire. Those were design flaws. Aliens don't have a design flaw they have an assembly flaw. That dude deserves to loose his ass for pushing his product in the name of more money and cheap labor. All these big name companies now have top of the line QA/QC to prevent that and produce a wide variety of products. CCH only makes aliens and should have known better than to risk their reputation by pushing their product. It's their own damn fault and now they may never be able to recover from it. In the meantime, I will still buy aliens and send to my consultants for inspection before I climb on them.
