To answer the tractor question first. Of course not, there is nothing
copyrightable in this image.
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Trademarked is never a
reason for deletion. The logo is clearly PD-textlogo and is de minimis
in that situation -- i.e. it's inclusion is incidental
In relation to the car in Tunisia, it could be trickier. It would
depend a lot on Tunisian law. It could be de minimis, it might not be.
It would depend.

If copyright holders are happy to have their materials on Commons it
is the copyright holder who needs to speak up for this, and there are
ways to go about this. Otherwise
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/COM:PRP is the policy that is drawn
upon here.

The logo is not a text logo - see here for a clearer rendering:

So perhaps in this case the fact that the design logo can't be seen clearly
is a defense against deletion, but what if it were clearer and more
squarely in frame? Surely there are many thousands of images where this
comes up - a design element included in a photo of an object, scene or
person that is copyrighted. In photos of Wikimedia events, there are
individuals wearing clothing with copyrighted design elements. Delete?
