I'm far from a washing machine expert but in my research there are still multiple options for top loader washing machines with agitators.
A quick search via Skynet and filtering down to Lowe's, then filtering down to top loaders with agitators I found these,

One thing for sure,
If it ain't broke... don't fix it...
Or like my wife says about me,
If it ain't broke - fix it until it is...

Do they still sell the blue ones or are they switching over to orange all together?
I have not checked the Rag Company website but on the Autogeek.com store they show both the blue and the orange.
I'll have to circle back to your other comments and questions, I have a LOT on my plate today.

Buy yourself a cheap, used, old-school top loading washer, then maintain it (they're very simple to work on).

I see more of them do have a true agitator, but a lot of them have the impeller with an agitator on top of it. I'm no washer expert either, but looked around a lot before settling on the Speed Queen. That was 5 years ago, it seems that more manufacturer's are bringing a true agitator top loader back.
And I definitely understand your fix it quote...

Check out a mom and pop repairman to see if they have good used one.

Exactly.
But if buying new, then Speed Queen (as you suggested) is definitely the way to go. If the wife objects, consider a different one ... wife, that is.

Re: Buy enough towels to make a DEDICATED small wash load
I've shared this article at least 3 times this week so I'm bumping it.
The concept makes sense to me and I practices a lot here at the Geek.
