    Nice of him to put a picnic bench there on the front...just the place to have some champs and caviar in the great outdoors :-)

    Can you imagine the cost of that windscreen? To say nothing of the refraction of looking through it at such an oblique angle.

    Some of us have enough problems looking though the sloped windscreens of what passes for normal vehicles these days when it is raining . I personally can't imagine how much eye strain I would have after driving that just a few miles
    Never try to tell me it can't be done

    You wouldn't have to worry about that problem for very long. The greenhouse effect from that much glass would turn the poor thing into a bonfire anywhere south of Pueblo, probably. Yikes!

    And then, because Ferrari are not known for installing small engines, you might get eye strain just looking at the fuel bill.

    Perhaps they did that on purpose to multi task it, you could also use it as a suntan machine.

    yeppers, today I checked the ambient around noon it was somewhere about 82°f inside my 15 by 33ft green house with a 12ft peak height it was 120 with the doors open on both ends but early this morning doors open all night it was 50°. I don't have anything planted in there at this time.
    I am trying to decide if I want to mount 2 300 gallon totes painted black high up inside and 10 blue 55 gallon drums under the eventual raised beds then tie everything together and create a thermosiphon system to balance out the temperature swings or not.
    Either way having over a 1000 gallons of water stored in there will not be a bad thing
