Yep, the ONLY snag with external sunscreen (learned from 10K miles in Model A) is try seeing a traffic light above you while stopped at red light. Can't see it!

And, Volvo here's trivia (from Volvo fan and Alaska wildlife biologist):

Why were Volvo and Saab cars some of the first cars with raked windshields?
Answer isn't aerodymanics or wind tunnel tests:

More moose per square mile in Sweden than any place on Earth.

More moose equals more moose / vehicles collisions. A moose can DESTROY your day. Those legs are just right length to put entire moose body over bonnet into and through windshield.

Volvo did simulated moose crash tests and raked windshield so moose goes over roof.

Volvo = Drive Safely, watch for oncoming moose.
