Dont you think thats a problem you pay a guy to handle your server when it should be fully managed? I dunno about you but if I pay for a managed server I dont want to pay another guy to handle it...maybe thats just me?

Let's see...if I did that, I'm looking at a possibly not so seamless transition (depending on the hosting company), NEVER being able to get the kind of deal I'm getting now with a 15 TB a month package, and possibly running into a situation where we are denied root.

No reasonable host will deny you root access to your dedicated server.
Depends on where you decided to move some hosts can GUARANTEE seamless transition.
About the 15TB deal? I can name 3 hosts of top of my head who can beat the price you are getting...

yes I can, its pretty easy moving your crons and I'm a tech-dummy.

It looks like you are trying to convince yourself why not to move....because you know whats the right thing to do and who are the right people to deal with....
