Post up those POV hood shots!

This is just one of those silly threads I thought I would start for fun.

One of my favorite features (And there are many) of our trucks is the big expansive hood. It says "There is a big engine in here" It gives us something to admire as we thunder down the road. It hides those little imports if we ride their a%&. It makes us nervous if we are in a parking lot and decide to roll forward instead of backing up as we should in fear of hitting a shopping cart. It reminds us of our really nice paint jobs...(Or)...That we need a paint job. It tells everyone that we are as aerodynamic as a washing machine but we have style.

So grab you phones to take a shot or grab a real camera that you can't make a phone call from and safely shoot your best Point Of View shots of your view of your hood! Include your dash if you like. Have fun!

Here's some of mine.

Nice paint. Whats the story on your dash bud looks very nice? I'll have to keep this in mind next time I go for a cruise.

Great shot! Being in the television business (Part time now) I really need to get my Go Pro and other cameras out and get some good video.

Good perspective, but shouldn't you be facing the other way?
