Thats a nice tractor! I spent several months of research and NH was on the top of the list. I actually bought a 2007 Kubota L3540 Grand with quick attach front loader, loaded tires, HLA HD37 forks, Land Pride disc harrow, 6ft box blade, 6ft back blade and a used 14K trailer for around 36K. If it wasn't for the fact that this Kubota has so many advanced features and commands a higher resale value, I probably would have chosen a comparable NH or Massey Ferguson.

Pond Girl --- Land Pride makes some really nice stuff, very well built and affordable. Also look at Horst Welding out of Canada, also good quality at good prices. Do you have a quick attach front bucket on your loader? If so, the 4,000lb forks, I have found to be quite a valuable asset. Picking up stuff like pallets , trees, stumps, rocks and broken concrete are much easier than with a bucket and it's quite a bit cheaper than adding a grapple attachment with hydraulics. Enjoy your tractors!!!
