Thanks for the tip. I never considered the point you brought up about taxes. As I said in another post, I am a farmer and we are very aware of the possiblity of being sued if someone gets hurt on your property. However there is a clause somewhere that has something to do with reason but I certainly would not want to rely on that one cause, you just may get an unreasonable judge. We in practice keep people off the land as much as possible. I guess I am not used to the idea that someone would think me responsible if something such as natural disaster should damage their property. Vandalism and things like that are a very low possiblity, people generally know better than to lurk around here after dark. I guess I had better throw away the laid back country ease that people seem to like about me and get the corporate mentality? If you read some of the other posts you will find that there are some that think like you do, and there are others that do not. I believe I was at fault, and I beleive that he was at fault as well. I just hope that others will realize from our mistakes and learn a bit from all these posts on the subject. I know I have learned and when I think of doing business again, either as the seller or the buyer I will be concious of these things. I never had to be before, because I was never confronted with this type of situation. I had a guy lined up to pick that tractor up, but every time I called something else would come up and he couldn't get it. Ever ride a dead horse before? That is what I got into and that was that. Anyhow thanks for the tip, I am sure others will find it as interesting as I did. One thing I have learned the last few years is that no two people think alike or have the same values, morals, or business practices for that matter. It definitely makes life interesting, and certainly not mundane. Ryan
