    I don't know. I have played around on the Tundra site and I like some of the new things being added. Like the ability to notify people by saying @AR15xAR10. He will get a notification in the top right that someone mentioned him in a post and will be linked to that post. You will also get notified when your subbed posts are updated via the same notification bar and the rep system is replaced by a like system where you just like people's posts. Should end all the bickering about rep on here.

    I like it now, but I also like what the Tundra site has to offer. I'll be happy either way.

    I'm not one to add features for features' sake. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

    The upgrade is partly out of necessity. The software we're using is very old (vbulletin 3.8 branch), not being updated any more (including for bug fixes!) and is holding us back from giving you guys and girls some nice improvements (such as drag and drop picture embedding in posts, among others features).

    I'm doing everything I can to make the new software as similar to this existing one as possible, in terms of how you use it. That's the reason why it's taking so long to convert it. When the test site is ready I'll happily tweak any bumps or hickups you guys find on the new site, though honestly the learning curve is very small.

    Here's the front page of the Tundras.com site which is running the new software, keeping the same layout as TW's.

    The vendors are getting some improvements on the new site as well...your own product catalog, and some other goodies.
