Well, the parts to make a LDO linear regulator are available locally while a LDO regulator IC has to be ordered. :) Besides, with a little creativity, a homemade one can be just as small. But that's just talk really. I'd just use a regular 5v regulator (LM7805) if being used in a small vehicle where current draw is no more than 1A average.
