Default ARVs and CEVs

What are the community's thoughts on PC groups having an armored recovery vehicle or combat engineer vehicle rather than a combat vehicle? I've always thought such an arrangement was more interesting than "oh, another team with an Abrams Giraffe" because it trades combat power for utility. At the same time, there's still enough armor on most of these designs to make them proof against small arms fire, if not light autocannon. Combine that with the capacity to pintle-mount anything up to a HMG/AGL/ATGM makes them able to function as rolling bunkers, so long as the crew doesn't get overconfident.

Opinions? Has anyone ever actually had one of these attached to a PC group? If so, what design was it and how'd it work out?
