Bullshit

Where are you guys seeing the "vehicles can only move 6 inches" thing?
The only thing I have found so far is p73 under "vehicles in the movement phase", which says you have three options (stationary, move up to 6", move up to 12" with penalties to shooting).

Some types of vehicles are limited to 6" - heavy vehicles it says can only move combat speed (6") (p88). Walkers can only move 6" (p90). I guess rhinos are "Tank" subtype (p92), but I don't see a movement restriction there. It says you have to move at least combat speed to shock, which implies you can go faster than combat speed.

Vehicle movement

For one or two battles we had been treating them as being able to move 6, 12, or 18 inches; effectively we gave them Run option where they couldn't shoot but could go 18.

I think that's right -- they can move 0-12 in the movement phase, and then flat-out (like a run) for another 6 in the shooting phase, instead of shooting.
The flat-out is under "vehicles in the shooting phase" on p75
