Are there any Companies that use Rifle/MG Teams in Halftracks for Germany and America? If so, can you point me to what book and Company they are? Thanks.

Off the top of my head, I think the answer is no. I could be wrong though, there may be a more specialized list that has them, but most of the mechanized lists that I'm familiar with don't. But Panzergrenadiers specifically are MG teams.

I'm curious though, why do you ask?

Al the German units in half tracks I've seen are either MG or assault rifle

The Panzerschutzen in the Blitzkreig book are rifle/MG teams (and the Gepanzert pioneers are rifle teams).

Honestly it's because I have Rifle/MG Teams and I didn't want them to go to waste. Are Panzergrenadiers good at all?

Okay, I was thinking that might be why. But don't worry - You can use Rifle/MG teams as MG teams! If you have Rifle/MG teams and want to do a Panzergrenadier list that is all MG teams, just use your Rifle/MG teams instead. Nobody is going to care, and the vast majority of people won't even notice the difference at 15mm.

And to anwer your second question, Panzergrenadiers can be a challenging list depending on how you play it and in what era, but they can also be very good.
