You may not be able to jack a banshee but I think you should be able to surf on it.
Like if you stand on an enemy warthog and the hog moves forward a few inchences you die? I would love to be able to jump on a hog then shoot the guy out. Of course it would be difficult and would only work if you time it right. Would work with tanks though.

Why is hijacking a tank a problem? Its a slow moving vehicle with a very flat surface. Hell, I remember one game the other player was in the tank but not moving so i jumped ontop of it and thew a plasma grenade in his face, and this is Halo 1! Maybe you won't be able to throw people out of all vehicles but you can certainly jump on them.

As for how it works I forget which magazine but there was an interview with bungie that explained it somewhat. Basically you have to time when you hit X as the vehicle is coming at you. If you press it too early or too late you get hit and die(I belive multi X hits = death). Once you are on it you have 3 options. You can either shoot your gun at the guy (right trigger) throw a grenade in the c o c k p i t (left trigger) or kick/throw the person out (melee I believe). So there ya have it. They also said the faster the vehicle is moving the harder it is to hijack because your window to press X is much smaller. I believe bungie also said friends could jump onto a vehicle while it is moving and then choose which seat they want (not like you couldn't already jump into moving vehicles). The only thing that might end up being a real variable here is whether you can always knock the person out and if you can do it to flying vehicles.

I think that almost all of the vehicles in Halo 2 will be hi-jackable.
