The AV 11 Rhino is fine, but if you want to talk about transport upgrades for 35 point vehicles, what does an Ork have to do to make its' Trukk better? I feel that the Trukk, while fast and AV 10 all around, is overpriced at 35 points.

Don't forget that being open-topped means you can shoot and charge from the vehicle, which is extremely important (and fluffy) for a horde melee army like Orks. Rhinos are meant to be transport delivery units, not mobile charging bases.

Both vehicles are picked up REALLLLY cheap. It's almost worthwhile bringing them just for mobile terrain...

when looking at a transport you have to consider what goes in them. If some SM variant could take DE raiders it would be way too good. DE in them is about right. Orks in a trukk are ok, but putting in them would be terrible.

Is the idea behind rhinos really to be durable? I never really saw them that way! They can be surprisingly durable and they certainly lend a little to a squad but I'd rather them be cheap than tough. There are a lot of reasons to take rhinos and they aren't always about being a bunker.
