Yeah, I usually go through a several month research on stuff, blah blah, then buy (or don't buy).

For this car it was 3yrs... until I got this new job and could afford it.

I had a '08 350z and I blew that ride with an accident. 100% my fault and stupidity. Made me realize how much I used to take for granted. These days it's about what is sensible and would benefit me more in the long run.
Congrats on making it this far! That in itself is a very good starting point!

Here is one example. I have seen them in two piece and once piece design. I like the one piece myself.

No sh1t, I just saw them, thanks bro for posting that. I park somewhat on a hill though, man, this is something to think about. I had no idea about these.

Like right now, I feel like I just wanna buy something to treat myself.. you fellas ever felt that way? Like you just wanna buy something big just to release the urge of buying something.

Yep, which is why I'm going to be buying a new TV and surround sound.

Waiting until Black Friday of course.

Be sure to sign up for Tigerdirect email offers. They have had good deals on 60" TVs and surround sound. Are you looking at a theater in a box type setup for surround or something more, custom?

P.S. I have a 60" LCd Tv and its HUGE, be sure to measure before buying! I didnt realize how big 60" diag. really was lol
I have a 1080p projector and usually have my PC setup to it...even having 4 virtual desktops open and a network montioring screen open, I can still have 3 more windows open without straining my eyes

Will they let you return a small child?

Whew, thankfully I haven't made that mistake yet, but I'm just trying to plan ahead.
