I have my eye on  a 2wd 1977 5020 with a bucket loader, brush hog, back blade... I need something to manage manure i.e.turn a 12 x 12x 4' pile and move manure from place to place. I also need it to remove snow from a 40x 60' driveway - usually a foot or less at a time. I would also like to be able to clear the muddy topsoil out of a 20 x 20' area in front of my run in shed and replace with stone dust. May occasionally do light brush hogging or grading. That's about it. Any thoughts on the suitability of this machine for these tasks. My main concern is that it is 2wd and not 4wd. Also I have never owned this model tractor so wondering about general opinions on it and this year - being that it is older. Thanks!

It will do all of that and more. With a loader I would take it the rear tires are loaded. I built a 500 foot drive with mine. I removed the top soil from my 100 X 70 foot molding room. I dug out my dock so the trucks backed up on the level. When the tractor was newer along with mowing the lawn I used the rotary 5 foot mower to keep the weeds down beyond the lawns. I also used it to plow and fit four acres of pumpkins several years. I now use it to clean horse lots and shelters and load the manure spreader. I use the loader to pick up and stack small square bales as well as feed hay. This week I dug out dirt in an area I need to put in batter boards for an addition on the shed along with an area wide enough to set poles. I built an land rake for it to clean up hay manure that the horses waste. That is only a small sample of How I have and still use mine. I have two now.
