TRON Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 So yesterday I was kidding around with my best bud, showing him the progress on my truck. He likes it, I'm underwhelmed. We were throwing around ideas about doing a big system, and I've always wanted to do something crazy, but it's mainly all talk. He has a 97' Jimmy 4 door that he doesn't drive much and he looked at me and said "$700 and it's yours". I personally know the condition of the vehicle, having worked on it with him for a few years, and $700 is a steal. He's not eager to sell it, probably just eager to see what I'd do with it. Just wondering what you'd do in my position, I mean, I'm not keen on walling off my Avalanche only because a wall isn't a good resale feature, and I'd rather not rattle the shit out of my daily driver.

Broke_Audio_Addict Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 Do it. That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

Borris The Blade Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 I would. That way you still got something to drive will your working in the other. It's like rubbing your wiener up against a sheep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRON Posted July 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 I guess the other question is, would it be worth it to invest thousands of dollars worth of equipment for a $700 vehicle.

White Lightning Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 Just wondering what you'd do in my position, I mean, I'm not keen on walling off my Avalanche only because a wall isn't a good resale feature, and I'd rather not rattle the shit out of my daily driver. Just a suggestion here ... But I got to see a similar vehicle (Jimmy/Blazer) at world finals with a pair of 12s uniqely placed in the vehicle and I Shit you not that SUV was in the high 50s to low 60s ... Think they used Sched40 PVC (large sacle for 12" drivers) as the enclosures ... Wish I had pics !!!

Broke_Audio_Addict Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 Yes. me personally I couldn't see tearing up a nice car to wall it so a $700 ride is perfect for it. That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

Borris The Blade Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 I guess the other question is, would it be worth it to invest thousands of dollars worth of equipment for a $700 vehicle. I'd do it if the overall condition is good. That way when you destroy it you won't feel bad, since that happens when you get loud. It's like rubbing your wiener up against a sheep.

TRON Posted July 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 I've seen a few Blazers that are good and crazy. I have no idea what I'd do, we joked around about 6 or 8 18s but its all talk for now. I don't know what I could fit but the goal would be to get stupid.

Call Me Dubstep Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 I guess the other question is, would it be worth it to invest thousands of dollars worth of equipment for a $700 vehicle. Depends on the condition of the vehicle, how well it runs, and if you actually like the vehicle.
