Yeah so... Both these things exist in North America... I mean, do you really believe we don't have tractors when there's a chunk of territory a third of the size of Europe that's plains?

Of course I know tractors are a thing in the US

But in Europe we don't see many SUVs, simply because if you need to haul a lot of things you get a van. And if you don't you get a normal car.

An SUV simply isn't efficient at anything. It is the worst of both worlds.

The tractor is more about when you need to haul even more stuff.
