Subject: Our Codex is da biggest an da best! - Orks 10th Edition Tactics
Third the scrap jet. It has rokkits, shootas and can melee reasonably well.
Not sure what the limits of "single vehicle" is for other armies though, a buggy might not be powerful enough.
7 Ork facts people always get wrong: Ragnar did not win against Thrakka, but suffered two crushing defeats within a few days of each other. A lasgun is powerful enough to sever an ork's appendage or head in a single, well aimed shot. Orks meks have a better understanding of electrics and mechanics than most Tech Priests. Orks actually do not think that purple makes them harder to see. The joke was made canon by Alex Stewart's Caphias Cain books. Gharkull Blackfang did not even come close to killing the emperor. Orks can be corrupted by chaos, but few of them have any interest in what chaos offers. Orks do not have the power of believe.

As for the seed freaks list, the buggies are very likely distraction carnifex..
Also do remember that while buggies do suck individually, sheer numbers makes them an issue.
He also picked what looks to be the best buggies or at least the ones that provide the best selection. Having advance/fallback shoot and charge gives huge mobility. It's more a question of taking advantage of all that mobility, move block and saturate with bullets and charges to bog down opponent. It horde build but with vehicles in mind.
As for that convo about blood axe detach, i would say the detach gives a lot flexibility, it provides a tool's for all occasions, but it requires you to think carefully since everything feels like an important piece of the army. Notable mentions to:
-Flashgits for full rerolls
-tankbustas for +1 hit against everthing
-breakaboys +1S against elite infantary
-stealthy/cover hogs for one obscene distraction
-strats with react moves and sustain/lethals
-redeploy enhancement
biggest con is mobility and lack of redundancy in that detach, everything has a reason to exist and there is lack of mobility, so trucks and wagons are a must. Also no defensive tools except for stealth/cover, so anything with ignore modifiers and ignore cover like tau is a problem.

The Tanksgiving event is buy a new vehicle (or bring in an unbuilt one - I have zero right now).
Build it and paint it during November and play it in an all vehicle megabattle on November 29th.
Possibly win cool prizes (which I assume will go to whomever buys and builds something ridiculously big).
I on the other hand are strapped for cash and am attempting to be really cheap, while still having fun.
(Ooo... You brought a Sentinel... how exciting! )
I thought grabbing a 50 dollar buggy of ebay would work.
In Ork we trust, kit bashing will be your friend. Rather then buy the model, you can make it! It's a lot more effort, yes, but if your creative you can do a lot.

When I moved south, 99% of all my stuff never made it.
Heck, I just got 9 miniatures in the mail that an old roommate of mine found in my old apartment.
The stuff that got packed was swallowed by a warp storm.
The 9 minis are 3 pewter obliterators, 3 old pewter/plastic 1k sons, Iron Hand Strakken, a female Commissar, an a Usbati from Warhammer Fantasy that I was converting to be a Tzeentch-thing.
Someday, I'll be able to build some propa ork stuff, but not today.

There are a metric ton of awesome 3d printed ork buggies out there. If you are strapped for cash, maybe pick up one of those?
Resin tends to be more of a hassle to work with than GW plastic, but for simple models like models tend to be it's rarely a big issue.
