It's also a bit off-putting that it can't pick fuel up off the ground.

But the climber is cool; I didn't realize the tall volume was tall enough to do that.

My version of an MCC is just a gear mechanism (maybe even static if it's reliable), a good climber, and a standard chassis. Help your alliance get 12 gears, then play defense until it's time to climb.
Considering shifting gearboxes are a COTS item, I would. Also the lack of ground intake is what makes this part of an MCC because it's easy to implement.
