Heavy-duty tractor for hardcore farmers. That’s a good description of the thingamajig you’re looking at, but their makers call them the most powerful tractors in the market.

It also tips the scales at 52,000 lb (that’s 26 tons) and uses a 12.9-liter six-cylinder engine with common-rail fuel injection that makes 2,169 lb-ft of twist (2,940 Nm). Price tag: $625,000.
