1956-1963 Porsche Super Diesel nominated by @Cowboy



Information: This was the one of two tractors made by Porsche that advanced past the prototype stage. The Super diesel is known for it's unique design; it certainly did not look like a tractor of the 1950’s and 1960’s. It is powered by an air-cooled, four-stroke, 2466 cc, three-cylinder diesel. Over 125,000 Porsche-Diesel tractors were produced, many of them still in daily operation on farms and ranches all over the world. They were priced at $3,500 USD at the time.​
 
SU. Not because it's an uncool tractor or because Porsches are inherently uncool. I think it's actually a very cool tractor, but all that will ever happen is either the driver jokes about having a Porsche or people see the badge and get confused, so that's not very cool.
 
What a hilarious (and convincing) way to say that you own a Porsche.

I have to say the the Lamborghinis are cooler, though:

From the picture it looks like the engine is in the entirety of the tractor.
I think that Joey is joking that the engine is at the front, not the rear like the 911s. I know I could be wrong.
