Basically they're lawnmowers?
Depending of the tool you'll put on it, your lawn would have a slightly strange appearance after using this type of machines
Small ones are known as "powered rotary tillers", "rotovators" or "
garden cultivators". The biggest are called "
two-wheel tractors"(1). So:
they can't be driven on thier own they have to be attached to a trailer
so technically perhpas not real vehicles ??
is not so far from the exact opposite of reality, as they don't need a trailor, and are self-propelled.
They are still used all around the world, as low-cost tractors.
