Thats cool. Im way too old to be upset by shit like that. Your name is winston. Your own parents hated you even before you were born.

My penis is bigger than your penis

I'm far from loud and my roof/headliner flaps around like Adam's ass on a windy day. I think it depends more on the structure of the vehicle.

Thanks that gives me a good idea on where to start. just one more thing, I am planning to do a ported box and have the room to aim the port and sub in any direction, are there any parameters on the way to face the port and woofer, such as how far should the space from the bottom of the box to the floor be. Or is there anyway of knowing which way to aim either of the two. One back one down, both down, etc. or is it just trial and error.

depends how you build it.

subs up port forward seems to be popular for extended cabs and quad cabs, sub up with port up in rear seems good for single cab. Honestly i've never heard a console box though so I couldnt tell you which is best, though I have heard that subs down works well in extended/quad cab trucks.

If you fire either down you need about 1/3 to 1/2 of the diamter of the sub towards the floor of space. So a 10" sub would be about 2.5-4" off the floor optimally. Port would be based on its size as you are adding a common wall (its adding length to your port basically) by using the floor, though you could "forget" about that and just get free extra-low tuning frequency.. 2-3hz maybe I guess.

Any time you have have a power wire next to your frame put some rubber hosing (or cut up an innertube) around it. The wire is bound to wiggle (due to driving or flex) and the casing will eventually wear through.
