We went from oil to gas when we replaced the furnace. It was nice getting that space back in the basement where the oil tank was and also going to a more steady cost for the gas. It sucked having to pay the oil company some $400 to come fill a tank every month or two and at least with the gas we can just budget the entire year. Plus, gas is just cleaner and you aren't burning something solid/liquid in your house.

If your tank is going, not sure how old your furnace is so, probably just as easy to just spend the money on a new furnace rather than a new tank. We didn't have gas going to the house at all and Wisconsin Energies will lay down a certain amount of gas line to your house for free depending on where the gas line is. (I want to say something like 75 feet). I think the only thing we had to pay for was an emergency cutoff switch.
