Transporting A 42" Plasma TV

I personally would only move it upright... especially with a 5 year old tv. Why put the added stress on the tv?

With that said, I took it to an extreme when I bought my 50" tv 3 years ago!?! I live in Washington state where there is almost 10% sales tax. I was traveling to Portland where there is no sales tax so I looked online for a great deal on the tv I wanted, called a Portland store to see if they would price match and they did, and I bought my tv down there to save on the tax which was substantial. But what happens? The damn tv didn't fit upright in my Ford Escape! I didn't know what the hell to do since I was 150 miles from home so long story short, I ended up renting a U-haul trailer which still saved me a bunch of money!?! LOL
