I've used both a Troybilt 7 or 8hp and a BCS 11hp. My advice is: go with the BCS. Repairs and parts for Troybilt have become hard to get and expensive in recent years. Our BCS is a more powerful machine than the Troybilt we had. Tech support from EarthTools is fantastic! To do 5 acres with a Troybilt sounds like it'll end in tears!
If the cost of anew BCS is too much and you can't get one used, you might consider a small (riding) tractor instead - you get more oomph for your money with used tractors.
