Well I NEVER buy brand new vehicles, still servicable at what cost?
That dip tube is probably near impossible to remove.
I reuse lots of stuff, but hot water tanks tend to fail at the very
WORST TIME!
Its like car batteries I replace mine before 4 years, and rarely get
stuck needing a jump, plus my alternator failure rate dropped
dramatically, then I give my old battery to a buddy with a wind
generator for his battery bank.
