The best TVs you can ever buy are Mitsubishi TVs. They are great solid products that last you YEARS AND YEARS and don't wear down and have state of the art picture quality, color, and sound. As an example my family still has their 56'' big screen Mitsubishi from almost 12yrs ago and BACK THEN it was already HD because they saw where the future was heading before it became a standard for TVs. They still watch it today after 12yrs and there is no glare from the sides, no dead pixels, and the speakers are still booming.

The newest model they have is the Unisen LED TV and the surround sound is directly in the TV...you can pick from a 12speaker, 16 speaker, or 18 versions and the technology directs the sound into the room without any wires or extra speakers. Basically it's the only flat TV that has 5.1 Dolby surround built straight into the TV, but you can also get the wireless subwoofer and back speakers as add-ons. And yeah it has an internet button on the controller, access to movie steams, vudo, pandora, facebook...

I also like them since they are always technology ahead of what becomes standard years from now...for example they are making tvs beyond LCD/LED and have made a tv that uses Laser technology...they call the tvs "LASERVUE"s and they use less energy, have 2x better color then standard leds, fuild motion picture tracking, and blah blah i can tallk forever on this heh

So yeah that's my two cents...I guess the only downside is finding a Mitsubishi dealer in your city to get one of them (they are like the Cadillac's of the TV world so you can't just get one at a bestbuy...But I may be wrong!).

when i hear mitsubishi i think of two things

1: shitty cars

2: "miku bitchy"

rtil · November 14, 2011 08:25 AM

wow that's interesting to hear.. i imagine they are expensive then? although if they last that long that might not be an issue

I'm not entirely sure what you're talking about. You're kind of right, when referring to the extremely old cars from the 70s- end 80s, but look at Ford's cars from that time, Mercedes, basically any. The reason why there are still a lot of those old Mitsubishi cars around is because they're durable, just like the TV that CVG mentioned.

Here are some newer (and also older) cars they made that are pretty neat;
Pickup Truck, good regular car, sports car and anotherolder good regular car.

yeah but i never see anyone driving those, there are far more mercedeses, volkswagens or fords on the road

even i have a volkswagen, which is also very durable

100% nazi steel

modern warfare 3 (or whatever the newest one is) has sold 6 million times within a few hours
does it make it better than every other game?

i dunno, mitsubishi just isn't as mainstream as ford, mercedes or VW. Usually people stick to what they know.

that being said, mitsubishi is one of the few car manufacturers that actually do shit aside from making cars. They're really huge in the paper production biz for example.

Sinitron · November 17, 2011 07:18 AM

are you saying that mercedes and vw don't make good cars? from nazi steel?? you must be joking (ford sucks)

rtil · November 17, 2011 07:23 AM

vw makes "good" cars but not cars that are built to last, and require special and expensive maintenance. so i guess in that sense they are good if you are rich enough to afford one.

Sinitron · November 17, 2011 09:52 AM

define 'built to last'

yeah it's a little finicky to change the lightbulbs but any mechanic or even car enthusiast worth his salt can unbreak any minor malfunctions

like the wiring on the back wind shield wiper was screwy on mine but it was pretty easy to fix

I think that depends on where you live.
Here in Germany, VW parts aren't really that expensive, seeing as most of them get produced here. Same goes with mercedes parts and older BMW part. On the other hand, cryslers and all that shit are really seldom here, so parts for them are by far more expensive to get.

Also I am not saying that VW and Mercedes don't make good cars, they certainly do. They just produce way more cars than Mitsubishi, which means they are a lot more mainstream, i.e. people will get them rather than Mitsubishis.

here's a good example

my friend bought a subaru , i dont remember the model or year but it was relatively new

the tires from the dealership wore out after only 10,000 miles (a good tire will last you about 50,000) and routine maintenance has labor charges and when a part needs to be replaced it can't often be bought at a junkyard or factory direct, which means you have to a pay a premium for a "specialist" to do it for you

Sinitron · November 17, 2011 10:30 AM

well subarus aren't made from nazi steel so duh of course it will suck

rtil · November 17, 2011 12:09 PM

american steel used to be the best steel until our manufacturing shriveled like a ballsack in the antarctic ocean

we'll make a comeback

Thread evolution via TBA style:

Help with TV purchase > car manufacturers > Steel production!

It's settled I want a friggin' 52'' LCD Vizio inside my Hummer with a pussy magnet that includes seat-warmer which happens to have steel bearings on the front fender for the those days of road rash and rocket propulsion to plow through traffic at 5:28 PM, ON THE DOT. It also needs to transform into a magical girl, just sayin.

And you can only buy this from Japan.
