DON'T scrap them!!!!
There may be a lot of them around, but as the saying goes - they aint making any new ones.
At least TRY advertising it on craigslist at or close to scrap value (to keep scrappers away).
Or better yet, as somebody else said, donate it to your local 4H or ffa - they can give you a receipt for the fair value of the trator (say 1300 each or so). That's a direct deduction on your taxes - true value will depend on your tax bracket.

While I'm going on about this - if there's anybody within 500 miles of massachusetts looking to donate any equipment - please let me know!!!
