For best small radio and TV hauller I place my vote with the 02-06ish Honda C-RV. We had a blue 02' till last fall when we lost it to I-94 traffic (ie some idiot rearended the old girl dammiging her beyond market value).
I-94 between Waukesha and Downtown Milwaukee during busy times, If ever bumper cars broke the 20MPH bairier daily that would be the place! Ooh the things I've seen....Milwaukee DPW tow trucks racing eachother/weaving thorugh traffic so dense I thought it impossible, a cold faced young hispanic couple in a Ford SUV scareing cars out of their way with threat of ramming(what is more they would cut ya off after passing), the list goes on. It is so bad I'm contemplating getting a camera and a youtube account to try to shame/incriminate these mental patients off the road (and maybe start a youtube sensation)!
There is literally one or more accidents at any given bussy time one can drive through, which explains how the auto accident lawers can put on air more ads than some corporations.

Rant over(for now).

I have one of these. IT is a Stromberg Carlson TC125 and has the "Opera Glass" magnifier feature. It is a 12" version of the Manhatan table to 10" set. Here is a link to the restoration page on my web site

when I was a kid I had a lawn mower bottom 20" all metal walker with no engine, a flat piece of plywood topped with a piece of carpet. Whenever mom or dad saw me sneak up the driveway with it they knew I'd be home in an hour or four with a floor model tv on top of it. We also used it around the house to haul around firewood. (outside mostly) I sent a picture to the "Idea guy" in Popular science that would make drawing like cartoons and send people $50. for an idea they used, but it never got used...... So......... if you really really want it, you'll find a way to git it home.

I am picturing that lawn-mower-base gadget in my head, and it is a neat idea. What you really should do, though, if you still had it, is to put a baby in one of those plastic carriers with the handle over the top, onto the lawn mower plywood. Then, submit it to www.thereifixedit.com as a red-neck stroller!
