I'd roll windshield down on the beach, only. Where I wheel, you would get a stick in the eye pretty damn quick.

The windscreen is a Canadian option.

Was the original intent for having a fold down windshield for hunting and safaris and things like that so you could shoot out the front of a Jeep? Not sure but it would make sense.

yes the orig need to have a folding windshield was for shooting. not hunting or anything like that but shooting durring ww2.

One tiny little pebble on the highway = a missing tooth. Besides the safety issues, it is ugly as hell.

I heard on the History Channel I think that one of the original purposes of the fold-down windshield during WWII was to prevent reflecting the sun and giving away your position. But I'm sure shooting was also a big reason.

Is it true that people fold down their windshields for rock crawling to lower the center of gravity or is this too dangerous?

I recall reading another reason was to enable more jeeps to loaded onto transport planes, ships, etc... they were more stackable with the windshield folded down.

windshield looks awesome folded down, but it is a PITA, too much stuff to take off. maybe i'll try in in the summer
