As much as nobody wants to move a heavy ass .50 around, "death before dismount" is almost guaranteed to get your ass killed. Having the field of fire to see your enemy while standing in the back of a jeep means everybody can see your dumb ass standing in the back of a jeep, and when a .50 is firing it becomes every enemys immediate concern. You will not be able to use the pipe the .50 is mounted on for effective cover. You are not going to drive away faster than the bullets chasing you. You are not Audey Murphey. You are going to die.
