I have a nephew like that kid. Obsessed with farming and machinery since before he could walk. He rode with me in the tractor and drove me crazy with his questions. He's grown up with a beautiful family. He's running the family farm now.
I had an uncle like you in Iowa, although I wasn't particularly into farm machinery. Dad just died, and no idea what ever happened to the family farm. Their dad died when "the bull" threw him over an outbuilding on the farm.
Good salesmanship too. I like how he didn't treat him like a little kid, and took the time to answer his questions straight. That's a man that know's his current customers, AND his future customers.
The little guy deserves to be treated with respect- he clearly has a great deal of knowledge in this field already at such a young age. You don't need to patronize him, you can carry on a conversation with him.
I think this kind of character is often built when growing up on a farm- it was like that for me. Being responsible for helping out with all the daily farm activities really teaches you structure and how to think long-term. I'll never forget the first harvest I helped to plant, that feeling of pride.

I congratulate that young man’s father and mother.
I would trust his judgment as a community elder- when he has his own family.
That kid could probably out shoot 90% of us on a range!

I'll never forget my first day of basic training in the US Army. We got to sleep in until 0530!
