Re: These were my dad's tractors
When you said "tractor" I thought of something you can plow fields on and grow corn, not some glorified riding lawnmower!

Interesting! To me the two terms were interchangeable.

It's a Lawn Tractor, you're both right.

And alternatively, what do we call the motor vehicle that pulls this on a highway?
A tractor.

Re: These were my dad's tractors
Jonsey, he's got you there. "Tractor" means "something that pulls" from da Latin. Did your dad ever pull a trailer with these things? If not they more pushed, cut, and weren't as cool as Vark's snowblower.
So, did he do anything like this?
With 40 horsepower
