One last thing, for a claim (the amount in dispute) of around $3K
there is no way this jerk will do anything other than bring this
into Small Claims Court, assuming he is that stupid and
cantankerous. Just to file a "real" lawsuit (the upfront
paperwork ONLY) a lawyer will charge him $2,000-3,000,
more than the amount of his claim, and only the most
unscrupulous and hard-up ambulance chaser would advise this
disgruntled buyer that he has a ghost of a chance in this matter.

Most states will allow individuals to bring a small claims action,
without lawyers involved, for claims up to around $5,000, but
the limit varies by state. (Call your city or county court clerk's
office for the answer.) Small claims actions will still cost him a
bunch in filing fees and registered mail charges, etc., at least in
my state (NH). And he will have to write up why he believes you
broke a purchase contract involving a warranty. (Few people
know how to write anymore and this may be a disincentive, once
he gets beyond the bluster of trying to scare you verbally.)
Regardless, unless it can be proven that you gave this man a
warranty on this old tractor, there is no way you stand to lose
anything but the hassle factor and your time in defending
yourself. (Sorry about that.)
