From 2002 through 2007 my investments earned 10+% (often significantly

Not a hard thing to understand but we all know why you don't.

Am I living in the past thinking that $20,000 is too much to pay for a
double cab truck with less than 30,000 miles?

Huh?

would return his investment in a few years and had to settle for
adding another energy hog conventional water heater.

Funny you should mention that. I just bought one. I have to have some
heavier wire pulled from the box before the installation.

Funnier is JimH making a comment like that: "but we all know why you
don't". He has no idea.

Check Craigslist Most likely lots on there for that or less. My 2004
Duramax Chevy is probably worth less than that at 80k miles, and it is still
in great shape.

On demand water heaters also have problems. Especially with older plumbing.
they have a filter that plugs up easily.

You are correct. As usual Loogy does not know what he is talking
about.

I did not have the proper sized gas line at the spot I was to put the
heater and I would have had to spend some big bucks to correct the
problem as my basement is finished with a drywall ceiling.

Additionally, I found out that due to our incoming water temperature
during the winter the water would not heat up to our deisred 125F.

Lastly, considering my total costs I did a cost benefit analysis and
found it would take me a over 20 years to recoup the costs of
installing a tanklesss system.

I had the water tanks removed and replaced with a single 40 gallon
unit for $750. It burns about $35 of NG each month and has plenty of
supply for 4 showers.

Check that figure on the cost to heat the water/month......should be ~
$20-$25, not $35.
