TV Size?

I was wondering in the Pete 379...what size of tv can you put in those? I am going to get on of the flat pannel HD ones so it will not be deep. I have been told 13 but i think that would be the older style. Surly you can at least fit a 15 right...or wrong?

Um, a Peterbilt does NOT have a big space for a TV...hence I do believe you can only fit a 13" if I remember right. All I could fit in there was a 13" anyway, anyone else know something different about this?

That's the hutch top over a closet bottom (?) When put in the hutch, bottom 2-3" are cutoff from viewing/sound out...There is an 'open shelf' at end of the bunk on ours that is not secure but can hold something maybe bigger??

379 Pete with the 63" bunk will fit a 13"

with a 70" bunk you will be able to fit up to a 20" in the cabinet.
We drove the one with the bigger bunk and I put my bedroom TV in there (20") and it fit fine.

Yes, you CAN get satellite TV in a truck now. Most truck stops sell these setups from Dish Network or DirecTV.

What do those mostly consist of. Is it just really a dish? I wonder if you are already a subsciber already and have a dish at home...you will get the same plan?

These are great questions. Seems like Qualcom should provide some of this.
