Replacing flat screen television

The 32" Toshiba LCD that came factory installed crapped out on our last camping trip. For those of you that have replaced their tv's, what type did you end up getting and how old was the original tv when it died? Mine was manufactured in 2009. Did the replacement tv fit the mounting bracket with little or no modification?
It makes no sense on getting this one repaired since they are like disposable razors. New ones are cheap enuff.

But it was a hard push to get it up and running correctly this last spring. I can't even explain WTH it looked like the first few minutes but after it warmed up ( 2 hour DVD) it ran fine the entire season.

I buy all Samsung and order online at Crutchfield. Advantage of all same brand is if remote disappears or gets eaten by the dog. Not to mention they are really dependable TVs

Still have the original 2006 vintage girt heavy tube thing. It works but the itch is there to replace it. Every visit to a Walmart or Best Buy includes a wander past the 32" TVs.

Not this trip. Dometic got big bucks from me for a new 4 door fridge. OUCH!

Insignia and Dynex from Best Buy. We have four of them, one in S&B, one in the condo and two in the MoHo. No problems.

The mounts should be standard. Just measure the bracket and make sure new tv matches.
