Reply to comment by mmmmmmBacon12345 in ELI5: Why does farming equipment require such low horsepower compared to your average car? by thetravelingsong
As an illustration of how power and speed relate. My neighbor buried a truck and trailer down to the axles in a mud bog. His truck was 300+ hp. My 70 hp tractor easily pulled them out but at a speed of about 2mph. Another example we've seen lately is Ukrainian 200 - 300 hp tractors towing 800 hp Russian tanks.
