Most likely because this is extremely inefficient. One person can't both focus on driving, navigating and getting the killing done.
Technicals have place for a driver that drives Toyota, a guide can sit next to him while third guy can literally ride shotgun (or AK). Then two guys to man the heavy MG mounted in bed, gunner and loader.
