KA a keeper or not

HI, I'll ask this question again. I have a KA washer from 1995 with one repair. Since KA is not making laundry equipment any longer, should I keep this one in hopes that it may be a collectible later on or just junk it when it dies? Thanks, Gary
 
Gary-- It will definitely be a collector's item in the future. Whether you're interested in keeping it that long is up to you. But at some point a very excited person will post here saying "Ohmygod I found a '95 KA toploader!!". The porcelain, the stepped spin speed and larger-than-KM/WP-agitator will set it apart from the WP-built pack.

Who knew in the '60s-'70s that the dime-a-dozen center dial Maytags would be so coveted? They seemed pretty pedestrian at the time, but now finding one is cause for celebration.
