don’t cut corners with gas appliances

Come on Jasin; "back in the day, when I was a young'un" those water heaters would last 30 years!! I don't know how long this one has been in since I replaced it but it's been longer than 10 years...or 15. I intend to get my moneys worth....just keep flushing the rust out of the bottom!
They just don't make 'em like they used to.
