550d User... Upgrade body or buy new glass?

Good morning!

I have been shooting for years now, starting with a Rebel XT, now with a T2i. I've always been passionate about photography, but have never had the resources to splurge on upgrading the body, or buying quality lenses. I took this past year off, letting the camera collect dust, and I finally want to get back into it... with some new gear of course...

I'd like your opinions. Should I upgrade from my 550d to perhaps a 60d or 70d, maybe even a 7d? I hear that the 550d is a very worthy camera for the money, and perhaps some better glass is all i need for now.

My current kit includes:

T2i Body

Canon EF-S 18-55 kit lens

Canon EF-S 10-18mm F/4.5-5.6 IS STM

Canon EF 50mm F/1.8 II

What should be my obvious next purchase? I primarily shoot landscape, but occasionally shoot at all other ranges. I don't often shoot portaits.

Thank you in advance for your input and suggestions.

Dylan
