I used to borrow tractors and implements from my neighbors for a few once every five year jobs, while I was still building my line up. They were a little shy on their maintenance and were very happy to have their stuff get some. I have noticed though, that views on borrowing and lending change in direct proportion to how much stuff you own. I had a new neighbor move in years ago, when I was just getting started, he was probably 15 years older than me. I asked one day about borrowing a tractor, and he told me that he used to borrow then got to thinking about the potential liability in it. That is certainly an important consideration, but the bigger factor was that just a few years earlier he had gotten to where he could afford his own, so now borrowing/lending are evil to him. I still loan something out once in a great while but I am judicious about it. The worst a piece ever came back was when I loaned it to someone who was very critical of borrowers.
