Same here. Moreover in aggressive beginnings they can be dispatched to conveniently reload the ammo of the military units.
That's smart. It's bit similar to bringing crawlers by air transport so they don't lose fire points. Usually, how long can you run the APC before it gets blasted?
In my buildups I tend to favor construction and survey, which means I can be weak during the first few turns until I build turrets and missile launchers. Needless to say, I hate it when I land close to an opponent who's put all his starting money into offensive units. Such configurations look like a paper-scissors game, or a dice game.

Its a bit different with an small map and a very aggresive opponent. I buy supply trucks and fill them up max to gain a small speed advanteges in the first rounds.

There's a good idea that I hadn't thought of before, filling supply trucks to take down to boost the buildout capacity

Together with a well armored APC my infantry is known for hit'n'run attacks where you don't expect it. I even use them to counter missile crawler "death from above" attacks.
