a trukk is a really effective delivery system for the boyz, but is somewhat of a one trick pony, and unless you are running quite a few, it is quite likely to be shot down before the cargo can be delivered. one of the other benefits of stormboyz is the ability to consistently charge around from combat to combat much more easily than resorting to embarking and disembarking. with zagstruk especially, you get multiple I4 power claw charges if you can survive that long.

also its one less VP on the table if transports count as VPs! and a truck is a very easy VP for an opponent to steal: on a trukk list every KP less you have on the table the better!

lastly you have to consider opponent psychology. it gives opponents a headache and a nagging thought that they are a greater threat than the boyz truck on the other flank. so its drawing fire and making your opponent react.
