The current New Holland economy models are still built by Shibaura which are the T1510, T1520 and T1530. The nicer Boomer 2000 and 3000 series tractors are built by Shibaura. The newer Boomer 20, 25, 30, 35, 40 and 50 models are all built by LS now. Another very good/long proven tractors are the John Deere 3005 or 4005 models, which are built by Yanmar; they are on par with the Shibaura tractors. Also, Kubota make some good bare bones tractors if that is what you are looking for.
