Ok.. times are tough, the economy is rough, and you run an elite strike force, with a limited procurement budget.
What do you invest your digits in, when you only have a strict number to work with? Consider all advantages, and how useful a vehicle would really be if it is only beneficial in certain situations...

The barge is the only one that is pretty damn useless.
The space stuff follows close behind....

Bridge layers a quite handy actually. Just watch the intro of Modern War 2 for Xbox 360. They show a great example of why they are needed.

The Bridgelayer is one of the most useful vehicles in the Joe arsenal. It was used to great affect in the cartoon, in the invasion of Cobra Island storyline in Marvel's comics, and was one of my favorite vehicles as a kid.

I love the bridgelayer, don't get me wrong..
I just got my first one from a fellow tanker, and it is a great toy. For fun factor, it's a perfect 10, but if you had a mill to spend on an elite team, would you invest $300k on one? If there were limited space on a transport plane, and you could choose a tank, hummer, wolverine, or bridgelayer, which one would go? Troynos- forgot to add mechs to the poll. Mechs are the most worthless joe vehicle.

Mechs are the most worthless joe vehicle. The Bridgelayer would be a requirement. Those tanks and hummers don't do you any good if can't get 'em to where they need to go.

Maybe a Resolute Bridgelayer should be more heavily armed. It just needs to hold it's own against attacks. Just pulled it down from the shelf to take a look-see; 2 twin cannons for ground based firepower, but no pivot for aerial pop. Oh well, hasbro can just add spring loaded weapons, a big turbo booster, and maybe a little neon orange camo paint app's so Cobra knows when it is coming.

The most useless vehicle would be those ninja battle ax & pile driver. They just don't make any sence to me. All of those vehicles on the poll could be re-deployed in another enviroment or some type of mission to gain the element of surprise.
