For $1800 all in, you should let the plumber do it...

Nah

Done, easy-peasy. Absolute biggest issue was lining up a way to get the heater home, as my truck is in the shop right now.
I worked this weekend, was off today. We drained the old heater over the weekend, unhooked the lines.
I got a ride to HD with a friend who has a Rav4, that was just enough room to get it. They had one Rheem 50 gal left, I grabbed that up. Dolly to get the old one out of the house, new one into place.

Got the lines connected, no leak. Made sure my exhaust was drafting out, yep; all good. Took the most glorious hot shower afterwards

Lowes has an easy DIY video, I just did everything they did.
