    That seems excessive. I can't show you my current TV because it's not made anymore, but I think it's a 26" or a 27"
    Here's the 40" that I'm upgrading to, though.

    I made them agree to that plan before I agreed to let them ride with me, and I'm going to schedule wakeup calls for all of them with the front desk. :devil:
    Believe me, it's happening. I do NOT want to spend all day on Sunday getting home.

    Yup.

    And I generally go through exactly that. Though the Tacoma doesn't have a chip or crack yet.

    I actually didn't know they sold premixed 2-cycle anywhere. Never really thought to look. I've always mixed it myself, but for the tiny bit I use (chainsaw and weedwacker), it may actually be wiser for me to go that route.

    Yup it's great. Pre mixed and ethanol free. Lowes/ hd sell it. Look in the power equipment section. I use it for my weed wacker. I also usually run a bit through my boat motor for a few minutes before fogging it prior to winter storage

    Yeah, until you're driving home tonight, haha!!

    Not quite that big but it is an open concept. Maybe 20 x 30. My kitchen, dining room, tv room and front stairs are open to each other.

    I'm hoping I don't get a crack or chip until the windshield is a little older and more pitted. Usually they end up being in my line of sight so insurance gives the okay to replace rather than fix. I hate pitted windshields.

    I'm more worried about the roads I'm driving on that have so much salt they're white. Can't help but worry about my poor frame! After all, we don't really know yet if the change of manufacturers in 2009 actually helped.

    That still seems like a big damn TV...
    My living room/kitchen are open concept as well, and my parent's living room measures 18X25. I've been using the afore-mentioned 26"-ish TV, and my parents have a 32"...

    70 inches still just seems like too much TV to me. You'd have to turn your head to watch it...

    It fits his living room pretty good . It is a huge tv but doesn't take up much room believe it or not .

    I have 2 - 42" and a old 32" in the basement that I haven't used in 5 years .

    When we first got Our tv we were living in an apartment in Arlington. Got a 52" Sharp through a friend's and family thing. It looked utterly ridiculous. It literally went from the corner of the living room to the picture window that took up the remainder of that wall. With the couch only like 10ft back from the wall it was like having our own movie screen.

    I'm worried that's going to be the case with this one. The current TV is in the corner between the liquor cabinet and the front picture window. I'm worried that I'm going to have to rearrange the whole living room to make the new one fit.

    I have an old 20" TV in my bedroom, rarely gets used. 42" in my living room but it's on the short half of a rectangular room. If I got any bigger than a 46" it would either block a window or the pocket door going to my game room/gym.

    No surround sound either, just 2 towers 100 watts each. Same reason, nowhere to put front speakers on a surround system and if I turn the room the other way I block the doorway and my picture window.
