    Please post pics after you get it mounted to the dash! Hopefully it's not hot where you live, I think it might block the AC vents. :)

    I have 110" screen on my wall. It weighs about 30 lbs and takes up about 1 cubic foot of space. It's called a 4K laser video projector...

    Even the fanciest short throw projectors can't compare to a UHD tv. Yes they're cool, but the blacks aren't black and it always looks a little washed out compared to a tv.

    I struggle with the pursuit of picture quality. There’s a point where it’s good enough, especially if I’m watching something engaging. If it’s good story I won’t care much about if the colors could be a little better, and great colors won’t save a shit story.

    I have a 4k 65" curved Samsung that still looks great in spite of being 5 years old. The new ones at Costco or wherever do look better, more vibrant, faster processing, etc, but I never think mine is bad. The projectors are cool, but they have visible downsides. I had a projector once and unless the curtains were shut and it was dark it kinda sucked

    That's my kid's dorm at IU. I picked him up and took him with me to BestBuy to help load the TV. He got free dinner out of it (Chick-fil-A). When I stopped to let him back off at his dorm, I snapped the picture.

    Nice. My wife called me a few months ago to come meet her with the truck. She had bought a 77" LG C1 and couldn't get it in her 4Runner.

    I'm no TV nerd....it replaced a 10 year old 30-something inch Samsung but dang it's a nice TV.

    We have it down in the basement against a black wall. With the blacks of the TV and the black wall it is surprisingly immersive.
