1.5 vs. 2mm sheet alloy means less wear on press forming tools (I guess tanks are not entirely hand formed) and of course easier forming of the manually shaped parts, thus less time and money spent in prefab, less time for welding, etc. As Don (madass140) pointed out, Tab II tanks do not feature a brazed filler neck. That's another "saving", at the expense of the customer of course. Quality has a price-Knut
NRP one's aren't brazed either though.
