Heck, buy a nice utility tractor!, 50 acres could easily be taken care of with my 484 with a 2 bottom plow and a 10ft disk. It's only rough the first time over it and then it gets easier, too bad you didn't use that 5020 you had to go over it the first time. You don't need the big power for 50 acres, just think, my grandpa had 600 acres he farmed back in the 50's and his biggest tractor was a Farmall M. My 484 weighs in at exactly 6,000lbs with a full tank of fuel (only 15 gallons), the loader side plates on, and no driver. My 484 is also a fuel sipper, you can get a days work out of it off 5 gallons of diesel, it's got a 3 cylinder International D-179 diesel in it, great little tractor thats really quite powerful for it's size. Also after the 84 series, the 85 and newer series had MFWD as an option.
