24" in the entertainment area, 19" in bedroom, 20" outside (63" total) for a 29' TT.
Now, do I use them? Main entertainment - only when foul weather is out. Bedroom - to catch the local late night news with weather forecast. Outside - only for special sporting events (NASCAR)

Pretty similar usage for us. I've personally never sat in front of the main TV. Kids watch it when they spend the night. Wife and I always fall asleep to the bedroom tv. Outdoor unit for sports socializing, especially NASCAR.

The wife says to me the one and only"SparkDr" that I have a problem. Now she thinks she's going to drag me out to dinner on that what do you call it "Valentines Day" thing when there's last years NASCAR race on TV. Bet she's outside again.

So far out of 20 different people that have posted you only have ONE
Now if you do get lucky and get a Second person You should still take her to dinner. One in twenty is a very bad percentage so if you get one more in the in the next 20 that would be 2 out of 40 still deserves you taking her to dinner.
And leave the TV at home You may find that you enjoy the Wife more than watching TV LOL

Since we're talking dinner plans here, does anyone have a recommendation for the Port Charlotte / Punta Gorda area of FL? We may as well settle up on our wager while we're down there all next week. Seafood is always our first choice, but a good steak is never a bad choice either. It would have to be a jeans or golf shorts and polo shirt joint as we're traveling light (flying). Our normal go-to place here at home is Bistro LeRoux in Lake George, NY, but it'd be nice to dine out on the advice of a fellow JOF'er.

Perhaps the question is, why do you RV ? I Rv to enjoy the outdoors, to enjoy a nice campfire while meeting new people, having good conversations. I do it to leave my "regular" life of TV and (at least in the past) work. I do it for a change, not to take all the distractions of my Brick and Mortar life. Perhaps there is no "right" answer, but, when I'm out sitting around a nice campfire, enjoying the wide open sky's and view of the stars, last thing I want is someone next to me watching Housewives of Atlanta or some other insane show.. JMHO.

What is the rule if the TV on the living room wall spins around and faces the master BR? Is it one 32-incher or do I count it as 68-inches?

I hear they have a real nice McDonald`s down there she can take you to if you win. Try out the 2 for 2$ menu.

I think you are going to win this one, we rarely ever use the TV, but each of us brings a computer or tablet so we can watch different things. We probably have 4-5 different screens, not including the TV, for the three of us...where is she taking you to dinner?!

I fired back with my most defensive, "I'm sure there's a lot of guys worse than me out there". So, please chime in good people. There's a dinner on the line here. I need at least two people with a higher interior length to tv measurement ratio for their TT to win the bet. MH's and 5'ers have been ruled out for purposes of the bet.

Well, I'm going to be no help here at all.....
Camping is getting away from it all and enjoying nature. Things like cooking outdoors over a wood fire, watching the deer go by, enjoying the brilliance of the stars at night. Watching TV is a Winter sport, when you can't be in the great outdoors.
All we have is a 13" TV, and we only use it to watch the news at night. If its pouring out we might watch a movie.
Go buy your wife a premium dinner, then take her back to the RV, turn off the TV and cuddle with her. Believe me, a little cuddling will go a Long way.
(From a happy husband that's been cuddling with the same lady for 45 years)
