In Europe where we use truck for snow plowing, Grading implements for rural road grading and maintenance, hauling dump trailers with aggregate, and short haul of Farm products and supplies, large Ag tractors do double duty and are common on the roads.

That's why a high horsepower utility tractor across the pond is considered barely adequate, and the high power European utility tractors are about 1/3 higher hp tractors than best you see in the States.

The higher speed tractors have front suspension. A tractor opening the first race of World Rally Championship in Finland - YouTube
Factory Stock except for engine control software tweeks, good tires, and road gears, and it could plow a field.

We in USA use trucks for plowing snow mostly, except upstate NY etc, maybe. USA uses construction equipment for almost all infrastructure. Europeans are more versatile. Take a Uni-mog for instance.

+20% of cars are diesel. Just find it interesting.

PS for every town name in New England, you can find same in England. Early settlers must not have had much imagination.

The video of the Norwegian tractor plowing was considerably on fast forward.. if tractors work good for them, that is great.
The plow driver was cute, to say the least.
