You are, Sir, absolutely spot on.
I can sort of understand people getting quite geeky about tractors, because they are ace. They're like the hammers of the machinery world.

Until they try to kill you
Like my uncle Geoff who managed to roll one down a field, shattering his spine.

Apparently he was trapped underneath it for 2 hours before someone came looking for him... I can't even imagine the pain.

That's why you have a roll bar installed on them.
My father has a Ford tractor that he bought in the 1980s for bringing firewood out of his 40 acre chunk of land. I've driven it back through the woods and used it to pull down trees that got hung up. I never would have dared try that without a roll bar over my head.
