Was at Lowes today and looked at the 5020 .  With the 20 inch 3/8 Bar and Chain its not light .  I am not a fan of a 3/8 chain on a 50cc saw , but for under 200 bucks seems like a lot of saw .

I would take the 20" bar off and the 3/8 chain. Change it over to .325 full chisel with a 16" bar.
With a little care, cutting 10 cds. a yr, it should last 10+ years.
 Like I've always said a saw is only as good as its operator.
Third generation logger, owner operator, 30 yrs felling experience with pole skidder. I got my neck broke back in 89, left me a quad. The wife kept the job going up to 96.
