I didn’t say you’d be at fault, I said you’d be the ass. But if you really want to get in to it, it’s not that hard to paint a picture of how you’d be at fault for something you did intentionally.
If the pivot has been there more than 10 years they could claim it now has a prescriptive easement to be there. That could possibly have the effect of legally making the crash entirely your fault. Depending on the state and how long it takes everyone to come to a conclusion about this, you could potentially take the $15,000 repair bill and triple it when you add the legal fees, maybe more depending on timing and potential crop damage.
It doesn't matter how long the pivot has been there, the original land owner split the property two years ago the way I read the op. That is going to knock your prescriptive easement in the head.
The first new land owner has presented a very workable solution, shown extreme patients in not pushing the issue for the first year. Tell me again who the ass is?
Edited to add I have the land sale mixed up, the feedlot owner is the second owner not the first, don't think this changes anything though.
