You convinced me guys. I like my HD also. Right now my wife and I camp on the weekends, so tv isn't a priority. I'll probably be spending the big bucks someday soon enough, when we do more traveling.

Wow I would think long and hard before spending $1500+ dollars to watch tv in a camper. I guess if you lived in it alot of months out of a year it might be a different story. Just my .02 cents.
