You would have to write new code for the design interfaces & stuff. Many things can be copied from the vehicle designer, of course, but you need to make your own version of the game and not just a mod.

Yep, would have to be done in the source code.

And, it's not exactly a trivial task, either..

You could knock together a flying truck (very useful, too) with the Pumpkin WZ. Could that be done now?

Yeah and as cool as that may have been, the flying truck was a very game-breaking addition to Warzone.

only to those that didn't research anti aircraft. too many people just went for rush tactics and flat team war maps. where is the fun in that?? i liked the flying trucks. very useful and they didn't chase each other around with the sniffing butt behavior which is still around to this very day. very freaking annoying. but you already know this. :)

because they are programmed to retreat at medium damage. you can also program your own trucks to do this. right click and look at the menu provided.

Referencing the groundhogs. Retreat if damaged is not what I'm getting at. Trucks will go outside defenses to repair, and being the weak little muppets they are, they get popped just like that - POP!

Maybe if they were armed..?

I think the only body that allows for multiple turrets (and at that, only two!) is the Dragon body, which for me is nigh-impossible to research before the game is over.
