Replacing our television
So this year we want to replace the tv in our rv does it need to be a special kind because of the bumps in the roads or can we just go to a big box store and buy one

Agree with Big Box. That's pretty much what the RV builders use.
What type of TV are you replacing? CRT Screen? Older Flat Screen? With or Without a Digital Tuner? Any can have challenges but they're all do-able.
Wanted to add, some of the new flat screens use an external power supply "brick" like a laptop PC. That can get in the way of a clean install job depending on where the outlet is, but there CAN be a big plus. Usually the ones with the "brick" are running 12-volts-DC, so it could be possible to use it when 120-AC isn't available. Otherwise, Inverter, Generator, Do Without.
