Over here in Australia, the trucks can be configured to have the seating running down the centreline of the vehicle so the troops sit back to back facing out. Ruins the cargo carrying capacity, but allows soldiers to leap off quickly (the sides are left down as well).
Only the top is left in place - to do otherwise would run the risk of heat stroke.
Note that it's not common to use trucks in hostile areas though. It's either M113s, ASLAVs, Bushmasters (although they don't fit T2K timeline) or mark I foot. Helicopter transportation is about as rare here in Australia as it is in T2K.
