i think its about time we had the option to lock our vehicles so stupid blues steal them, sick and tired of blues costing me money, just because they think they own everything on the battlefield, i don't really mind when they know what they are doing, but 99% of the time its someone just out of academy who gets it destroyed in a matter of seconds, then i have to pay for their stupidity if you are going to put these people on our team, then give us the option to lock them out of our vehicles.

Isn't there already a 15 second wait time following deployment before blues can enter an ally vehicle? Or is this aimed at people who steal LAVs and HAVs when the driver jumps out to hack a CRU or Depot?

I've heard people talk about that timer, usually complaining about it when they want their squadmates in a vehicle but they have to sit and wait to get in.

Maybe it's a squad only thing? If you're in a squad it has the timer lock. I don't actually know, unfortunately. Didn't seem to save my dropship from a random blueberry right after it hit the ground, though. Pretty sure it didn't take me fifteen seconds to get from the supply depot to my ship a grenade toss away, since it landed right after I finished changing suits.

I know it's made me wait to get into a blue's (not squad) DS, at which point the pilot lost interest in waiting and left. Same with an LAV.

That's odd, then. Maybe my ship lost the lock status when I switched suits, like how Amarr Logi uplinks lose their bonus when they swap suits/die.
