Seems you can buy brand new disc plows all day long overseas but not here

The disc plow is a good suggestion, I had forgotten about those, though I have never seen one used for sale or otherwise. I'll look into those would it make sense to stick with 2 disc or would my tractor be able to handle 3?

Disc Plows are more flexible than Moldboard Plows, which only properly turn soil within a narrow depth range. I speculate that you can pull a three disc plow but for your limited need a two disc plow is probably adequate and probably more available. The larger the diameter of the Disc Plows discs, the more draft resistance exerted.

Tractor dealers have a good idea where idle / superfluous implements sit from customer conversations and service visits.
Craig's List and eBay are good sites to shop.

Using a disc plow, you could handle 3. Ken Sweet

Ken Sweet (above) offers Disc Plows from time to time. You could ask Ken to wait-list you for the next one he refurbishes.

I purchased my refurbished Ford Series 101, 2/12" plow from Ken and have been content with it.

Id probably be interested in doing that it would beat buying something that's not ideal that I'll have to sell later

Ken Sweet's shipping costs would be very fair also.
Even way up there to you "cheese heads"

Plowing requires traction, faster plowing requires horsepower. The 1930's tractors with around 25 HP pulled the2-14 fine, lots of weight. One other thing is the old ag tractors had adjustable wheel widths to match the plow furrow.
