Is a model 5200 a decent tractor for 5 acres?

The G5200 is an outstanding little tractor. I would love to have one! They are grass cutting kings. Run forever on a tank of fuel. A friend has one he got as a trade in for $800 but expect to pay much more than that for one in good shape.
Here is what Machinery Link says:
Premium $5,767
Good $5,340
Fair $4,806
Approx. Retail Price New:
$8,900
I would not offer more than $1,500 personally. These machines I believe were made only in 1993. Art may be able to give some better info. ....

plowman-
Perhaps the ship has sailed already on this tpoic, but I will comment anyways.
Your post did not differentiate between a 'G' 5200 in which Chief commented about or the much larger utility size 'B' 5200 tractor. BIG differences between the two. I have B5200 tractors, and they are very capable of handling most any homeowner project and alot more, certainly with great ease of five acres.
I cannot comment on the 'G' series, however the 'B' is equipped with a very efficient, powerhouse of only 13.5HP at engine, and will as Chief wrote, run all day. I have seen mine run for 15 hours on a single tank of fuel - no kidding!
The 'B's were manufactured from 1983 thru 1995. Check out my pics...to see if we are talking about the same tractor...the 'B'5200.
