I dont see where as this thread moved along, that the term "ugly" was used other than by Satxron in his post, who seemed to read something or create a whole new thread by injucting ugly into the thread. Its like a "pc" post, not to hurt the feelings of non-old tank owners.
It seems pretty clear that the new tank is a sharp look, just not a heritage look that most of us believe fits with the twin. Is not like anyone is advocating treating new model owners like red headed step children.
