    If you buy a TV wallmount kit over at the company store, you can take it and your truck over to the detail shop to get it installed.

    I just suggested that idea for drivers that want to do it the cheap way until they get enough funds together to get a laptop stand or a tv with wall mount. I prefer to just use my laptop as my tv with wireless internet then to buy a tv with mount and spend money on dvd's and the player and satellite tv monthly payment. Just too much money going out the wallet.Did i mention i am a cheap b@stard.:biggrin_25523:

    First a Few things I got that BS message this morning on 8 MPG!! They are high as a kite too think that!! I average at the most 7.25 in this #### Century! The Peterpusher I just dumped in SLC wouldnt get above 6.5 @55. No way am I slowing down any more... They want me to run at 50... Hmm thats a $100.00 a week as a company driver that I loose. To maybe get $50.00 in a fuel bonus!!! Yeah not happening!! TV in light weight.. Take a standard wall mount kit turn it upside down mount through the Passenger top cabinet type area. I seen a guy the other day in a LW Cascadia with a 42" hooked there with a long swivel arm to place it where passenger seat was suposed to be...

    yea righ. we all wish this could happen. but then places like walmart would lose money because they cant stuff your trailer with 43000 pounds just because prime wants to pay you 50 bucks and save on fuel. walmart would start lookin at other companies if that happend.:biggrin_2554:
