I agree with GlenIdaho.
Very admirable idea, young man.
Think about it, to make sure that you do want to give the tractor away. In a week or two, if it's still on your heart to give it to your friend - then give it to him, with no regrets and take joy in pleasure of giving with no strings attached.
You've been blessed by receiving gifts... this is "paying it forward".
By no strings attached - I mean that if giving a gift, it should be given with no expectation of ever gaining anything in return (not even undying gratitude). And the person to whom the gift is given is free to do as they wish with it: use as is, restore it, or it even gives them the freedom to sell it if they want to and to use the profit how they wish.
This summer, my husband and I discussed it first - then gave $300 to my cousin from FL, who does not have too much in life. She was visiting MN (her mom paid for her plane ticket). Anyway, the money was a gift - she was free to use the it as she wished (whether wisely or unwisely). We never expect repayment of any kind... and we will never mention it to her again (neither to question how she used it, nor to make her feel indebted to us).
