Driver and pilot light kit: cheap, fast and useful

Your money is in the vehicle, not the kit. A cheap rifle, Level 1 armour, a wrench and signal smoke keep you alive after a crash or ambush.

Why this build

The vehicle is the expensive part: a Ural Defender costs $7,200, a Little Bird with miniguns $12,000. Spend there, not on body armour.
Repairs give XP to the Driver or Pilot track depending on the vehicle, so the wrench levels you too.
The orange signal grenade costs $50, needs no unlock and tells your team which vehicle needs help. White smoke unlocks at Medic 5.

Habits

Drivers: vary routes, keep moving while unloading pallets, and keep the delivery streak going.
Pilots: land instead of letting passengers jump. In Season 2 parachutes open slowly and not at all below about 10 m, and opening below about 50 m when falling fast causes fall damage.
