FWIW, I chose to keep my pressure tank and compressor pump. Reasons: 1)Pump doesn't run on demand (less noise) 2) If compressor pump fails, I can hook up a plug-in auxiliary and still have water 3) If plug in auxiliary fails, I can pull into a service station with air available and pressurize from the fill cap 4) It is all working so cost me nothing to replace it.
Since those initial decisions, I've found a couple of other benefits: Easier to winterize (no bypass to mess with, no special hose for antifreeze, has blow-out air built in). Easier to hook up to city water (no valves or extra port to maintain, just hook up with hose and turn on).
