TV In Your Truck?
Topic 17383 | Page 1
Yes 19". Don't use it much. If you are near a decent sized Town or City, there are quite a few OTA stations available
Yep, sitting face down on the top bunk.
The places I go never seem to have any reliable tv stations, and even in Las Vegas, where I can get about 50 channels with and HD antenna, only about 10 of them are watchable, and of those, only 2 are worth watching.
I just turn my mobile phone into a hot spot and connect my laptop to it and watch youtube videos or shows on amazon instant video.
But...still nice to have a tv just in case you just want to watch local programming.

I have a tv waiting to go in. Just need to buy a mount for it. Right now I have a portable DVD player for entertainment. It unfortunately getting used more frequently than it should. I bought during a 34hr reset in FL. I have since had to do another 33 on the road and am now stuck near Savannah, GA for the next day and a half to 2 days.
I think I'd have to get one so I can watch the games and races.
Yes, try to catch some news and an occasional game every now and then.
Yes 24 inch and a DVD player for those times I can't pull in any good channels. At the end of a long day I like to watch a little tv while I eat dinner and unwind.

Yep. Have a 28" and DirecTv. It's great for when we get delayed and I keep shows recordes on the dvr that can be watched when on 10 hr break in the sleeper while the other is driving their shift.
No, just a portable DVD player and my laptop.
We were looking for the tv with dvd player attached but my sister had a new 36" flatscreen still in the box that she just gave me. Cool. So we were looking for the microHDMI cord to hook to phone and our phones are not compatable. So we'll hook up the rental Redbox movies to the laptop and watch them on the tv. Anyone have Direct Tv? How does that work? Sue, is the recorder extra cost? Is it necessary?
