[QUOTE="2/B or not 2/B, post: 708713, member: 7233"] I've been looking at semen tanks and I found a used Taylor Wharton 34XT that I can get for $350 plus about $60 shipping. The tank is 7-8 years old and is in use by the current owner. When new, this tank has a 212 day working duration. Full weight is about 95 lbs. I like the fact that it wouldn't have to be filled too often, but it's bigger than we need and really heavy. It seems like a good deal and looks to be in very good condition but I don't know if I should be concerned about its age or not. A new Taylor Wharton 20XT is $500 plus $30 shipping. Working duration for this size is 140 days. Full weight is about 63 lbs. It would have to be filled more often but it would be easier for me to move around. I'd like to get a tank but I don't want to pay an arm and a leg. Do you think the bigger used tank is an outstanding deal, or should I consider paying more for the smaller new tank or even holding out to eventually find the smaller tank used? Any feedback is appreciated and if anyone wants to see more detailed specs about these tanks, I found a random goat website that breaks it down nicely: [url]http://www.barr5semenservice.com/taylorwhartonxt.html[/url] [/QUOTE]
