here's my answers to these questions

I guess these are mostly vehicle questions.
1) Is there a "sweet spot" where you can shoot a banshee that is more effective? Are they immune to some weapons, (sniper rifle)? It sometimes seems that I'm hitting the banshee, (I can hear the "tone" when my ammo makes contact), but they're not dying. Then I get in one and a couple of rounds hit me and I'm dead.
i don't think there are spots that are weaker than others. sniper rifle isn't all that good against moving vehicles. If a hog or ghost is standing still, you can shoot the driver out of the vehicle pretty easily.
2) I'm behind a tank. I aim with sniper scope. I can't see the driver, but the scope turns red when I aim at the back of the turret. I fire and make contact, (hear the "tone"), but driver lives. If I didn't kill him, does it do some damage/take shields down?
any shot to a tank does some damage to the driver.
3) Is the wind shield of the warthog bullet-proof, bullet resistant, or does it do nothing?
plasma grenades bounce off the wind shield. I think it lessens the damage of bullets slightly.
4) Does shooting a warthog in the fender do any damage to the driver, (does the hog become an "extension" of it's occupants shields/health?)
I think any part of the hog when shot causes damage to the driver and occupants.
5) Do vehicles offer the same amount of protection when playing with or without shields? Does the vehicle give you more protection when you have higher shields?
I am not sure, because i don't play without shields often.
