Replying to: kyfdx (Dec 13, 2008 6:38 am) I dunno. Based on the amazon user reviews, & my seeing my friend's Panasonic plasma, I think plasma is the way to go for best picture quality. Esp. if it's your main movie-watching TV, & it's like your "home theatre" set-up. If it's more about lighter weight, less energy, & you're not going to sit around obsessing about the picture quality of new DVD releases of Czech New Wave films, LCD's can be very good of course. And if you can't get the 50" TV home in your current vehicle, you might have to buy a new/other truck or SUV as well.......sometimes sacrifices have to be made.....

Replying to: corvette (Dec 14, 2008 7:35 pm) Seriously though, the way the mutual-fund accounts have fallen in the last year, I'm glad I spent the money on something I wanted vs. just watching it disappear into thin air! Mark |

doesn't anyone talk about cars in here anymore? taking the 2000 3.2TL. For 2K, it is way nicer than what you normally find. And I should be able to flip the '98 contour and maybe even have some money left over! Not to mention a car I don't mind driving. 1 owner, all dealer serviced, completely known history. Even just had a service and fresh VA inspection, not that it does me any good (not living in VA!) I will however be up to 4 cars. Starting to approach Andre territory. Thinking about having a fire sale. I put them all on the market, and 1st one that gets for my asking price, goes. My wife might not appreciate selling her car out from under though... Better stick to listing the contour and Accord. 1st one to get a good price hits the road. The kid is hoping for the Contour, since if I move the Accord, I keep the TL for now and he doesn't get upgraded! I'm liking this new minimalistic bottom feeding plan. Cheap cars are, well, cheap! Also saw on a Volvo board a 2000 V40 (wagon) listed for $3,500. If it wasn't in SC I would have gone to take a look.

Replying to: roadburner (Dec 15, 2008 7:01 pm) Took the wife's X3 to BB for the 52" XBR6-BluRay bundle.. for $2350.. They were sold out of the XBR.. So, gave me the bundle deal on the W4100, which is what I was originally shopping for anyway... $1950 for 52" 120hz LCD + Sony BluRay player.. Added a cheap Sony surround sound system (amp and 5.1 speakers) for $250... 36 months.. zero interest.. Didn't check the residual, though.. (oh yeah.. it was a very tight fit...)

Replying to: kyfdx (Dec 15, 2008 7:12 pm) Then I started to wonder what size TV would fit into a mini clubman? You'd have to buy a smaller TV, & thereby save $$ & electricity, & less gas on the Mini. Oh, the He** with it, I'm an American, I want a big fast car & the biggest TV I can fit in my house........I might wait for any good sales between NY's & pre-Superbowl tho.....
