Personally, I don't get too worked up about where stuff is built anymore. You can not buy any tractor today that is 100% built in America. I doubt very much that you ever will again. Parts are sourced from around the globe from the most economical supplier, with the final assembly completed in close proximity to the largest final market. That's been done for a long time, and will no doubt continue. I'd look more at the quality of what is produced rather than where it's assembled. I think there is some debatable quality out there in many smaller tractors too, relative to past designs.... FWIW, Rod
