Dropping the hood at 20MPH (in reverse)

[Louis Cronin]

I found this pretty odd...

I was backing out of a really long driveway last night and started to drop the hood, picked up a little speed and it was still going down.

20MPH in reverse with a 6ft tall wind break blocking my view.

do you have the smartop unit ?

I would be worried about damaging the frame doing that, its like a big parachute behind you. lol

The Smartop is great. Had it on my previous cab and removed it when i sold it. Have yet to fit it to my S4 but really miss it with the weather like this ( hopefully fit it next week ). Well worth it.

cant see how its allowing you to do it at 20mph

For some reason it does allow you to drop the roof while reversing. I tried it a few days ago.
