At first, nobody ran AV as a primary role, but with the current condition of tanks pretty much all dedicated AV have no choice but to run AV as a primary role.
Assuming of course, you can actually afford and stomach it.

So instead of constantly keeping a ditch between vehicles and infantry we should try to bring them closer together. Make them work together by exploiting the forces of each in tandem to turn the tide of a battle. Unfortunately, a tanker is not something that is guaranteed, nor is it something that most infantry are interested in running.
Additionally, vehicles are far to effective at AV to warrant actually using AV in tandem with a vehicle (in most cases).
I see where your going with this, (trying to create a relationship similar to the Heavy/Logi I assume?) but in all actuality, it won't happen for a very, very, long time.
Unless we nerf both Vehicles AND AV into the ground. While extremely counter-productive, it did manage to bring a Scouts & Heavies closer together.

Just how much your fit costs, how many times you usually die AVing, and yes hominy tanks you normally AV.
I'll make this a bit clearer later.

So broken mechanics being fixed by a buff to the primary and nerf to the counter is a solution?
This buff/nerf tank/AV thing was just a cover up of the problems tanks faced
Invisible swarms rendering problems no vehicle locks getting stuck on a pebble that was laying on the ground non-existent hit detection connection interruption, etc.

So instead of constantly keeping a ditch between vehicles and infantry we should try to bring them closer together. Make them work together by exploiting the forces of each in tandem to turn the tide of a battle. In theory, yes. But most tankers now remove their small turrets because they want to run solo. Don't get me wrong, my corp specializes in AV, so I've worked with our tanks to clear vehicles from the map, but I can understand not wanting a random bluedot hopping in your tank and screwing up your plans.
Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.

I'll leave this here. It's nostalgia now, all shot pre 1.7. Now my primary way to kill tanks is with REs.
http://youtu.be/7bh-USAguCA
You can see all my AV fittings in this videos also shot before 1.7. I had three (STD, ADV, PRO) The only one I still have is "The Baby" which is about 167k.
