I don't really agree with not letting a "rich guy" spend his resources on helping his team. Timers are fine though. I think you should be able to "lock the seat" or it's fair game for your squad and or faction.

If anyone can grab your tank it opens up a deeper expirience because you have to really think about getting out of your tank or not, if you have a choice to lock it or not that is fine as well, more choices the better. Also it brings into play more thinking if you get out and abandon the tank asset why not let someone else take advantage of it or bring it into the fight?
