Land Rover creates disappearing hood

http://www.businessinsider.com/land-...ng-hood-2014-4

Interesting concept. I know I've had a few steep uphill rides even in the camaro where I couldn't see too well over the cowl. Only a matter of time before we're just watching screens instead of windshields.

Like in a modern tank. I mean in this case I'd say we all would prefer to keep our windows, but to supplement your lines of sight with cameras that were on all the time would be pretty cool. Just have to make sure they are helpful and not distracting.




And after watching I have to say, that is just stinking crazy wicked.

Very cool, looks like it turns on/off with the angle of the vehicle.

That is cool but I can't but help thinking, just another thing to break down. Then again, if you can afford a land rover then you should be able to afford it if it does.
