    Using that table mount for your TV bolted down like that will not last long. The bumps in the road and vibration will break the mount pretty quickly. I have tried doing that exactly like you have it setup, TWICE. It broke within a month or so both times. I highly suggest getting a wall mount and mounting it that way.

    He bought it. You can tell by the placement of the stickers. Once, a long long time ago, I was leased to US Xpress for a short time. They are anal about the lettering on "their" trucks. The lease trucks look identical to company trucks except the truck number begins with the letter "L".

    i've done this same setup in other volvo's for up to 254,000 miles and never has anything broken (this same tv was mounted that same way in the last prostar we had and it was fine for 398k) but what you don't see is the wood that is under the shelf and on the wall with 3 braces that are all epoxied in place.
