Mahindra Ag North America gave one lucky winner a new 1120 tractor with a loader and mower as part of its Military Salute Giveaway, a tradition that honors the service and dedication of U.S. military personnel.
This year’s winner is former Marine Lance Corporal Richard Espinoza IV, from Eagle Mountain Lake, Texas. He served as a diesel mechanic in the U.S. Marines.
Mark Oppold caught up with this year’s winner who says this Giveaway continues to honor those who serve our country.
“I was shocked, I couldn’t believe it...I plan on helping my dad around his house. He’s thinking about buying some bigger property, and I’d be able to use it a lot there.”
