As noted elsewhere, Steampunk 2 doesn't have vehicles, because the point of Steampunk Conveyances was that vehicle stats went there.

However, Steampunk 1 does have a conversion algorithm that creates stats for steampunk vehicles from stats for modern-day real-world designs, and as a worked example, applies that to the Sherman tank stats from High-Tech to create a steampunk "Mobile Fortress". (It also has an algorithm for weapons, and applies that to the Sherman's guns.) So you get a steampunk tank there that's more like what we call a tank than the Land Ironclad in Steampunk Conveyances, which is on, shall we say, a different path of technological evolution.
