Undead RVD, the Willys MB was designed in 1941, and as the game starts in 1939, it is not available for your warrior right off the bat. You'll have to choose another one. And as for the "tends to ride with other people," remember that your soldier is representative of an entire division of troops, so that little factoid is kind of irrelevant.
