I cant believe Messicks stated that Kubota are much better built than LS tractors and says that he is now selling LS tractors when in fact he is selling CaseIH. I looked at Case and I didnt see the quality as with LS or the style and layout to be the same as he stated. I dont think the contract built tractors are the same tractors that these manufacturers build and just put a JD, MF, NH etc name on them. I think they are built to the specs of the company that they are manufacturing them for which is not the same as their regular brand items. With exception of those brands like Montana who really have no brand or spec to supply, they just buy an LS and paint it green, so they really are LS tractors. I think NH has some of their tractors built by LS and they are not the same fit and finish, different options (make that no options) that come standard on the LS. NH then sells them at ridiculous prices and makes more money. They can then charge you $1500 to put on a set of remotes that LS puts on for free.
