"Build Your Own" rules often open the door to ruthlessly efficient min-maxxed designs, so the penalty may also serve as a disincentive for those.
This is the most likely reason. The book won't be out 5 minutes before some sod has come up with the list of best vehicles for arseholes.
VDR for 3rd was a great way for you and the local guys to custom build stuff that nobody would agree to play against.

The absolute best thing I saw come from the 3e VDR was one of our locals converted a Gorkamorka truck with a Catachan driver and 15 lasguns arrayed along the wall between the driver and the bed. In the bed was another Catachan standing behind the lasguns with a laspistol in one hand and the other raised in a fist.
When we asked why the gunner had his fist in the air, the player replied "He's yanking the string they ran through all the triggers!"
(The lasguns weren't linked. It was just 15 lasguns with BS3. Usually didn't do much, but there was one time we saw it wipe out a squad of 12 genestealers in rapid fire range...)

That sounds cool!
It also would have been one of the first nopes the guys I played regularly would have issued. Tournament mind set permeated the scene

Well hopefully people get that this is Necromunda, which is kind of an anathema to competitive play.

I just flat out don't understand why anyone would want to play competitive Necro???
If there was ever a better use of the word I'm not sure it's possible.

Yep. That’s why I am thankful for the group I am with now. We play narrative games using grimdark future firefight, song of blades and heroes, pulp alley, etc. The only official necromunda stuff we kept was models and terrain.

My Palanites are gonna mob around on LS storms(seems fitting).
Orlocks(already) have bikes & quads, just need to add a Ridgerunner.
Goliath will rock up on a....Goliath.
Outcasts I haven't really decided yet.
Delaque presents an interesting problem, I'm not sure which fits them best.
I figure the Taurox would make a good Enforcer vehicle; it has that SWAT van / MRAP feel to it.
My Escher will probably be getting bikes and trikes for the girl-punk biker gang look

I think the vehicle design rules are cool and it's great that you can use a lot of current GW 40K vehicles straight off the bat.
I'm now wondering if that's why so many bits from the Cargo8 Ridge Hauler are being sold separately.
I'm wondering if the heavy stubber crew from the Ridge Hauler will fit the cupploas/hatches for things like the Goliath, Ridge Runner etc, so you can easily swap out the GSC crew?
Do we think the hatch sizes are the same as those on the cargo containers?

You can't get these Detroit parts easily.
Otherwise
Cawdor - soft skin trucks. Or that crazy fortress of redemption from the comic
Delaque - ? Maybe ridge runners and bikes for a scouting feel.
Escher - Skimmers
Goliath - Goliath
Orlock - Bikes and quads
Van Saar - Walkers
Nomads - Whatever they get
Corpse grinders - Ork stuff with rollers and pincers and grabbers...
Enforcers - Taurox
Outcasts - I supposed based on affiliation?
Chaos Cult - I suppose CSM gear based around God mixed with scraps like soft skins.
GSC - GSC
Squats - Rhino of course. New Deimos one.

Make more sense if the vehicles are "exotic custom" or import.

WarComm has a new article. It's just a puff piece without any real substance, but it has pretty pictures: From the looks of it you don't have to glue the container in place. That's a good thing. And based upon the first picture in the spoilers, they haven't recut the container sprue for this kit. You can see the three barrels, 2 small and 2 large boxes that come on each sprue there. Plus, as far as the trailer goes: "The trailer comes with its own armoured container, plus boxes, barrels..." So the trailer box isn't just the trailer. You do get a container in there. No fuel tank though, which is a shame.

To be honest. they could have just stuck with the first image. There is so much joy in the half-assed cardboard cutouts.
And Warboss is referring to the Vespa TAP 150, in case anyone is wondering

Seems right. The last time I went to an auto wrecker the used parts were more expensive than one from NAPA…and I had to wrench it off the wreck myself.

Authentic parts from out of production models tend to be expensive, outside of collectible reason if the new part work and is cheaper no reason to get the old, expensive one.
