At 5 or 6? A peddle tractor. Seriously, at that age, he wouldn't have the strength, control, or grasp many of the concepts needed to run a tractor. Almost anything will work when he reaches an age where he can run a clutch, work breaks, and hang onto the steering wheel of a manual steering tractor without breaking bones. A DC Case with a hand clutch works pretty well for inexperienced drivers. But I'd almost double his age before I let him run much on his own. I started too young, and had too many close brushes with the "other side" to even come close to recommending starting that young. Aaron
