Give it a shot. Remember that Bill Gates dropped out of college to start Microsoft and a lot of other successful businesses were started by guys like you who are passionate about something and took a risk based on that passion. If you don't try it, you'll always have the "what ifs."
You're young, now's the time to try it. Just wait until you have a wife and a couple of kids. You chances of trying it then is pretty much zilch.
My opinion is that the repair part of the business is where you'll be sucessful.

Get your name on craigslist, go to the shows, LeSueur, Albany, Hutchinson, etc. Good Luck!

I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”.
