How many TVs do you have in your RV?

You may remember the days when RVs didn’t even have one TV installed. Now, newer RVs are being designed with three, sometimes four, TVs. Can you believe it?

If you have an older RV, chances are you only have one (or two) TVs. But if you just bought a new model, you probably have three or four. Are we right? How many televisions are in your RV?

Please vote in the poll below, and leave a comment too. Do you wish your RV had more TVs? Do you wish it had fewer? How many TVs does your RV have, and out of those TVs, how many do you actually use? And if it has an outside TV, do you even use it?

We’re curious. Thanks!

We had two but we removed the one in the bedroom and put in a small fan. We have used that far more than we would have used the TV!

We have three. One in the bedroom, the living/kitchen area and one outside. We’ve never used the one outside. The other two are used frequently.

We had one. After using it maybe three times in four years, we recently removed it.

Came with 4 .. ridiculous. Took out 2 and left the one outside for football games. (Still haven’t used it :/ )

mine has 3. I rarely use them, except the outside one when hosting a tailgate party.

One, it might be on in the evening. Main use is early morning weather report.
Have nr two to install, when I get around to it.

I have two but the one outside is a waste of space to me. Have only tried a couple of CDs in it in four years.

Came with three living, bedroom and cockpit. Only use the living area one.

Have one and have used it only to watch the Presidential Inauguration and very rarely a TV show or movie off of my phone. We’ve used it probably 3 times in 7 years.

We just downsized from 4 televisions in a 43′ diesel pushet to merely 3 in our newly acquired 36′ diesel pusher. Hopefully we’ll adjust to the change. 😉 Actually we rarely watched one of the four, so it isn’t a material change at all. The three (and the four previous ones too) include an outside television, which we use extensively during football season while tailgating at games.

4 TVs – 2 in the living room, 1in the bedroom, and 1 outside. We use mainly 1 in the living room occasionally, the rest, almost never.

The RV came with three. However, the outside TV was ruined in the rain. Never used it anyway. And why can’t they install Smart tvs? Is that really too much to ask?

Since we ordered our RV, we had the option to have 4 TVs. We chose to have only one in the living room, which we do use frequently. We had cabinets installed where the bedroom TV and the second LR TV would go. We knew we’d never use the one outside.

2 analog and only the one in the living area was converted to use a A to D converter. Seldom used and the one in the bedroom is never used, bedroom is not a place we have ever watched the TV.

One and it has spent most of the time under the couch. It might come out if we are camping during a Packer game. When I am camping I am getting away from TV too.

Pulled out the two 27″ CRT TV’s our 2007 rig came with, and added a 32″ LED up front over the cab and moved the first replacement, a 30″ LCD unit, to the bedroom. We have a Dish Tailgater and Wally, plus various streaming devices for our rig.

Came with four.

The one over the windshield is what we use most because we have opposing sofas, so we can each lay on a sofa and comfortably watch. If that was the only TV, we’d be fine.

Never watch the one in the bedroom. Almost never watch the one at the back end of the living/dining/kitchen.

I do occasionally use the one outside if I happen to be grilling dinner and the news is on. Otherwise it would never be used. I wouldn’t put one there if it was a “pay for” option.

none, and why would you want one camping? we do just fine hiking and kayaking. if you have rain, well, spend time with each other.

Many of us live full time or almost full time in their rvs. We aren’t just camping.

I checked “three” but only two are actually in my RV. The third TV is mounted outside.

I only have one in my 25′ trailer but it swivels between bedroom and living area so acts as 2.

Our class A came with two CRT Tv’s. 19″ heavy one over the windshield which I removed and changed the space to storage and designed a swing down system for a 32″ flat screen so no more stiff neck! The bedroom had a portable sitting on a pull-out tray. (Lousy design! When out, no way to get around the bed!) I mounted a 22″ flat screen above the window opposite the head of the bed (side mtd bed). I cutout part of the window box surround so it is easy to view and control without getting up. We only watch in the late evenings and on rainy days. Also, on occasion we have the flexibility for each of us to watch separate programs.

I have one 40″ that I almost never watch, finally cancelled my Dish subscription and just stream Apple TV or watch OTA.

One 12 volt 13″ flatscreen in my 22′ motorhome.

My class A came with 3. 1 outside, 1 in the bedroom and 1 in the living area. The outside 1 I’ve turned on once, when I bought it.

We have two but hardly get used. Use RV to see the countryside not watch TV. YMMV

Diane M

One, but we’ve never watched it a single time.

We have one tv, but very seldom use it, and then mainly for DVDs. We keep current/track conditions via our computer.

Wren Grace

Two inside; one outside. It’s ridiculous; we only use one, and that, very occasionally.

Vanessa

Came with none but spaces for two. Bought a Roku TV and had dealer install. I was living in the 26′ TT for two years. Good company in the evening for a solo camper with a couple of dogs.

Roy Davis

Technically, we have 3 inside and one outside. We rarely use the outside one

We have none. We have the prior technology…Radio. And, also, books. Also, we do have guitar, banjo, harmonica, accordion for backup.
