Why would you gift something to someone to avoid paying a tax you don't have to pay anyways?

Because you want to structure it so they don't get effed in the transaction too. It's the "nice" thing to do.

The $13K gift tax applies to income taxes.

No it doesn't. Gift tax is completely separate from the income tax

agencies don't really care

Treasury would, but probably not likely to find out

The trailer appears to be taken care of. You might can agree that the gift is only worth $13k, but still not the "correct" way to do it. Bottom line is that it wouldn't be your problem IF it was even caught.
