Water heater

Well being as my 30 foot RLO is 10 years old now I am thinking of replaceing the Hot water heater before it goes out and causes costly damage.it is a 6.2 Gallon Attwood .
My question is can I replace it with a larger capacity without major mods?
This one had been sufficiant for DW and I but just wondering if there would be an advantage .

If it ain't broke why fix it I would take it to a good dealer have it serviced & let it go at that. My "old 5er (still use it for hunting trips 20+ years old) hot water tank still runs like a champ!
