Great if you have lots of ground you can drive around, i bet that set up makes it much easier and saves a lot of time driving searching too . Its good old Norfolk so very flat, % of my shoot is drivable, around 3000 acres also being so flat its best to shoot off the top of the vehicle for safety Yes all rear windows are blacked out, its just great that the driver can watch everything, i do a fair bit of driving and it can be a bit tedious as to not knowing whats going on, but also good when parked up in a baited area, doing another set up this week for a keeper.
