Consider the difference between a tractor with a clean radiator and another tractor that has a radiator full of dirt and chaff. Both tractors are identical except for how well the radiator works.
Air flowing over such surfaces can make a very huge difference.
Another way to look at it is that your windshield has much more area to heat when moving than it does sitting still. When sitting, the same air is in contact with the glass.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule.
