I have used a burn blanket and really don't appreciate the mess they make, especially if you have to CM after using it. Everything it gets on is now a slimey mess (you, weapons, vehicles, etc.)

We have one in each truck in the back hatch for the sake of satisfying the packing list. If my truck is burning I'm grabbing my guys and whatever sensitive items I can and I going to let it burn, I'm not a firefighter. Its a lot faster to smother a person with the millions of acres of sand than it is to open and deploy one of those snot rags. As far as MRAPs are concered, I have no idea. Those things are way too huge to get us around in our AO.
