I posted a while back with a photo of three-wheeled cars. Now here is a photo of tractors with three wheels. I don’t like the look of these either. They look to me as if they would tip over very easily on a hill. I think they were popular some years ago and were used perhaps in market gardens as the wheels were set to follow the furrows that the vegetables would be planted in. Do they look safe to you?

To be honest, they do not look at all safe to me. May be it's not a big problem of flat land, but not used on the hills.

It is not very safe. But I think it was designed like this to have a lower cost.

No, in my eyes, the three-wheeled tractors look like they'd tip over easily. The tractor I drove on our farm when I was young had a wide wheel base that was very stable. We had split plows that were used when I drove down the rows of crops... Of course, they couldn't be used after crops got taller but we had a tiller we used in the rows after that point.

I wouldn't want to drive the white one It does look like it might not be the safest thing to drive The red one is cool We had one like that on the farm back in the 60,s
