If you make it to the 3rd book that almost comes close to what you are wanting. At least I think so.
Spoiling the entire series for myself is what got me interested but I know the tractorpill is just a ruse
Big machines are just fun! And even more fun when they’re pilotable!
Get into the EVA, Xi 
Fun fact: Muscatine, Iowa is apparently now a popular destination for Chinese tourists because they wanna see the spot where Xi rode a tractor in 2012
Didn't he lived there as a young student for some years/months?
yep and the family he stayed with still adores him and he has visited them recently
Yeah, the couple on the left are the Dvorchacks who hosted Xi in the Star Trek bedroom which is now forever part of his lore. The lady in red next to him is the one who organized the whole thing. This was from his 2012 visit and they had another reunion during his SF visit last year but it was wisely closed to the press.
Socialism is when tractors, and the more tractors you have the more socialist you are.
Turns out my hyper reactionary grandpa is actually Lenin reborn based on his home decor
just checking out the competition, China is the #1 tractor supplier to the world
and they don't charge John Deere prices either
John deer actively fight against right to repair laws on their equipment fuck a John deer. The fact that chuds were able to spin that as woke is fucking insane.
evil chinese dicktator climbs onto a tractor heedless of hurried denials of trained workers 
Xi really is a guy being a dude
Xi confirmed based and Tonka-pilled
It’s joever
welcome to the club.
If the Communist Party of the Soviet Union still ruled, we would've gotten Tractor and Tankies as a variant of the typical hammer and sickle.... 
Crank your tractor!
He's just like me.
