If methane gas is cheap because you're in the US, don't count on it staying that way; there are a ton of export terminals under construction, and when completed, they'll raise domestic prices in the US to match those on the world market, which are 2-3x higher.

I'm not in the US, and tbh I don't really use a ton of hot water. I think a tankless would still be a good investment for me. I'll also end up getting an air-to-air heat pump probably with a gas furnace as a backup for the really really cold winter days.
