Never too young. I still remember clearly when I was 3 I used to sit on my dads lap and steer through the car park while he used the pedals!

I had a farm a while back and it was great to take the little ones on the tractor, farm ute and quad bike

My young bloke has been doing it for awhile now, surprised me one day, I left the keys in the ignition while shifting cars around in the shed, came back to the car running, he must have figured out how to start it from watching me do it.

Needless to say all the keys stay out of reach now.

My young bloke has just turned 3 and apart from the different colours of our cars he is flat out pointing at all the mining gear around the place, that's a dozer, there's an excavator, there's a front end loader, that's a grader, he even puts the wife back in her spot if she gets a name wrong,
