My 2 car attached garage stays around 50. The thermostat is set below 50.

Spend your money on insulation.

I warm my garage with a 1500 watt baseboard heater.
It has 10 ft walls. The garage is insulated like its living space.

My BIL has his walls foamed before drywalling.
He foamed his pole barn too. Foam is the way to go, just cover it. Foam is not fireproof.

Put your $5000 in insulation, thermopane windows and insulated garage doors. My attic has 18 inches of fiberglass. My walls have over an R20 rating.

1000 watts = 3412 BTU's
5000 watts = 17,060 BTU's
7500 watts = 25,590 BTU's

Energy efficiency is the only way to go.
The cost of energy is only going up..
