So we all know that CCP is in the middle of vehicle reworks and balancing. They have also stated that certain vehicles will be pulled out of the game to be reworked. Leaving just the basic variants. So lets use that opportunity to make them what they should be.
Logistics Light Attack Vehicle (LLAV)
This vehicle should really be the logistics ship of eve, in a dust form. Each racial one could give bonuses for their racial flavour just like logistics ships do in eve.
For instance, a Minmatar LLAV would be the Scimitar of Dust. Fast, relatively hard to hit, reasonable tank, but no teeth and a good amount of repair power.
Lets make LLAV`s REALLY great logistical entities.
Scout Light Attack Vehicle (S-LAV)
I honestly think these vehicles need a short term cloaking ability. How else can the really low hit points be justified? An improvement to speed would be good too.
What do you think?

My Corpmate recently got into Scout LAV's. I got to say gunning from that thing at high speed is a dream. Its so smooth and easy to aim.
We sometimes mess around with it and, yes, on roads its the same speed as my standard LAV. But get it over rough ground and even on hills and I'm left as a speck in his rearview mirror (so to speak, would be a nice feature to have  )
Personally I would say the LLAV is ok - if you add remote reppers and / shield transfers it works pretty much as it should, its just the gits that fit them with nothing but resistors and plates that ruin its reputation.
But then again I can't blame them since we can't see any health bars at all
none whatsoever,
absolutely ziltch

The LLAV is kind of okay, but the rep tool is a pain to use - if that were improved on I'd be pretty happy with the state of LLAVs.
S-LAVs have too low HP really. The better acceleration is noticeable, but having the same speed as any other LAV and terrible HP means it's not very useful. |

-Ditch the turret (it only does 50% damage anyway) for 2 more seats in the back.
-Ditch the current remote rep/shield trans. for a nanohive/AoE repair (maybe repair for Gallente, ammo for Caldari?) |

I think, first off CCP should rename them:
Logistic Light Attack Vehicle => Light Logistics Vehicle
Scout Light Attack Vehicle => Light Scout Vehicle
Might seem like a silly change, but naming reflects purpose, and they should primarily do logi-stuff or scouting, with any turret being for defensive purposes.

I agree. However I would go further and say that they are not really attack vehicles at all, they are support vehicles. Well the logistics variant should certainly be support and not attack. It could be argued that the scout vehicle is a form of attack vehicle.
I still like the idea of having a short cloaking mechanism.
I also like the idea of removing the LLAV small turret in favour of an extra seat.
My ideas might not be the best ones put out but I'm really happy we all agree on the basic premise. Logistics LAVs should be supporters not attackers. They really need to work in such a way too.
