Does Standard Have any Good Vehicles?

- Vehicles are not a popular card in the current standard format of magic the gathering? They see very little play, so lets look at the rare and mythics at our disposal and see if any are worth picking up or playing before the set comes out

What I see is a lot of enter the battlefield artifacts.... and I know of a Standard card that cares about artifacts and ETB, called Vesuvan Duplimancy. Where you see nothing, I see chaos. You can use Scrollshift to blink a Hovership. (Also like Aether channeler in any Duplimancy Deck). You can use cards like behind the mask to target an artifact, loran's escape for hexproof of an artifact (cuz way too much control in standard right now), You can use three steps ahead to create a copy of target permanent - meaning with duplimancy, double trigger, with the added fail safe of it being a counterspell if needed.
I've brewed so many decks with Duplimancy, but mostly around etb creatures instead of artifacts. It usually ends up being a bit of a meme deck that throws opponents off, but it had legs for a while. It was much better with Tamiyo's Safekeeping to protect a nonland permanent, but Pick Your Poison changed destroy to sacrifice, meaning there's no protection. However, if the deck is built around artifacts, most decks only run 2 in the sideboard.... so I could see a Duplimancy/ETB Artifact deck really messing with our opponents. I have ideas now.
Thanks for your detailed comment! Hope you have a great week
that turn 4 max speed looks jank. But they released some good Zombie cards with Aetherdrift.... yaaay.... Zzzzzzzz
