Again, I actually find frames both more useful and more fun. In my final days of 1.2.5 world (which was more or less with RP2 as only tech mod), I had total 3 vehicles of my own design: http://integratedredstone.wikispaces.com/6-directional+Movin...

One was used for mining, other for paving, and third had attached two 7x5x7 trailers, one was mobile house with basic facilities and the other was mobile Thaumcraft 2 lab.

But most things can be automated quite easily with frames, and I find it more intuitive - you just look at it and see what it does when it's done.

I also later designed a fully programmable factory using RP2, Buildcraft crafting table and a conveyor belt.

I am glad to hear that Eloraam started working on RP again. I hope I will be able to design von Neumann machine in RP, eventually (that's my ultimate goal, but there are several blocks still missing in RP, so it's not yet doable). At the very least, next time I play I want to have a full base on a moving platform (may be of several independent "trucks"), so I could easily move all stuff I have somewhere else in the world. :-)
