Unless of course I am doing something wrong. Playing mostly modern era (and I do mean modern as in if I start a game today it will be set at May 2010.

There really aren't any tactics for 106 RCL Jeeps in the modern era. Even average APCs will tend to have a cannon, often stabilised, and so will hose them down after the first shot reveals them.
In the 50s, 60s and 70s they can be
very lethal, even to T5X series, provided that you can set up at the halt a turn or 2 before and let the enemy come to you, or pop up from behind a ridge (move 1 hex only) and engage at <500m. In the 1950s US army before the 105 Patton, they are one of your most lethal AT weapons, so useful for dealing with IS series.
And they are cheap.
