No I am selling it because after he wanted it and I got it, he decided it wasn't as fun as he thought it would be. It sat in the garage and he would say "I am bored", I would reply "Go ride the 4 wheeler you wanted so bad." He would take 3 laps around the back and park it. "I am bored again"sanchezf said:
Boy is 9 and is really into football. He would rather stiff arm the neighbor kid than ride it so he said he felt bad and it would be ok to sell it to get some of my money back.

Funny that you should post this... We saw one while on vacation in OK - fell in love. Got back were like we'll buy one after the truck sells...needless to say, ordered it Sunday afternoon - truck is still under our ownership.

We are impressed. As most of you well know - we are in an RV, so there are windows everywhere and impossible to black out. It shows very well on the screen that we made. We bought a styrofm sheet from Lowes, cut it down to fit inside one of our slideouts, covered it with some pure white drapery material bought from JoAnns, pinned it tight - and it looks wonderful. Hubby measured last night and estimate that we have over a 70" tv. It is just slightly grainy, but keep in mind that we are only, maybe, 8 feet away from the screen. For those into electronics - this website kicks azz. We had never dealt with them before, but was very impressed with quickness of getting the order and the prices. We are now ordering a receiver and some speakers...

OK, a lunchtime trip to Best Buy left me luke warm to the front projection idea. To get a quality projector is going to be $1,500 to $2,000. Then there is the mounting it to the ceiling, questions about hook ups to my older home theater and the washout from the sunlight through the windows and so on.Pete said:I am the king of my domain Yorkieboy.
After studying and comparing I may have made a decision on a rear projection 56 inch HD ILP form JVC. The viewable angles are great, no blacking out and you move to the side, crystal clear picture, 70lbs.
$1,899 for the TV. $400 for 4 year in home service plan covers cleaning, alignment, mirror calibration-polishing, free in home set up/calibration.
So basically $2400 for to the door service, 4 year in home service, and 56 inches of TV bliss. They also are doing 0% interest until 2010. Typically I would pay cash but hell free money for 3 year? why not :shrug:

I love BH!!! You can order stuff in the morning and get it in just under 24 hours. Not bad for 3 to 5 day shipping from NY to MD.

Pete, check out Theater Extreme. Giker just bought a 140" screen, projector, 6 theater style seats, new sofa, love seat, the works basically. They went to his house, measured the room, analyzed it for sound and designed him a system to fit, all for much cheaper than I imagined it would be.
The picture quality was quite impressive. Naturally the first thing that he wants to watch on it is porn.
They have systems for every budget, and you buy as much or as little as you want, but their systems seemed to be cheaper, and higher quality with a better backing than what is available from best buy and the like.
I'm considering doing it if I get extended again. I want to move the big screen to the basement, and put teh projection screen over the fireplace. Eh, it's good to have a dream. 
Oh yea, PETE, I have all the brochures and price list and contact info for them if you'd like to see it. I can drop it off this weekend or meet you for lunch one day next week. 'Sup to you. you got my digits.

See what day can do on price. He's been known to beat BB's cost on televisions by as much as $1K.Pete said:
