roll a vehicle with a stock stereo for a week, then drive your truck.

This is very true. I have a very nice stereo setup in my grand prix and i miss it all the time i'm driving my tahoe. I ended up putting in just a MTX thunderform simply to help the stock bose because i don't want to lose all my cargo space like i did in my car. Plus any time i really need the bass i just drive the car.

Here are some pics of the magazine article and the cracks in the liftgate plates. This was back in 2003, so you might notice some of the equipment is old school, like the original Xbox and PS2. This was also back when 7" screens were avg size before the bigger 15" screens were out.

The highlighted circular area in the right picture shows the metal mounting plate cracking, on both sides of both hinges:

The door panels I fiberglassed: 8" Kicker resolution midbass, 5 1/4" components:

im sure you had the same problem, but the back of my old tahoe used to stay damp cus of the seals being broken on the windows from the bass, my sub box ended up getting mold built up on it lol

I've had my w7's for about a year now.. but just got back from a 7 month deployment.. take it from me.. when you hear your system for the first time after 7 months.. oh it's so amazing.

Now i'm getting used to it again.. the thought of a 3rd w7 crossed my mind seeing as I already have a JL 500.1 amp just sitting in the closet.

We did 9 jlw6 12s in the extended cab of a nissan hardbody (96) and it too up so much room the box had to be built so the seat would lean back into it just so i could fit inside to drive... the amps were in the bed 9000watts... and ever since then i care ALOT more about quality of sound than quantity.

It was only fun at shows or when you felt like being an a$$hole.

Im thinking exelon 8s in the yukons doors (to match the sixs and 5 1/4s already there though now and a custom center console with 3 down firing jl 10s.

and keep my 3 12w3s (sealed) in the rear.. all super hidden discreet stuff.. but with a massive sound range.

mashed out.. 9 12w6s 4 8w6s 8 jl 6.5s and 6 6x9s

Edit(just realized the sub box wasnt built yet in this pic.. oh well its 1 of the only 2 pics i have left of it. Taken the same day)

When you add another sub make sure you add not only the amp but adequate wiring and circuit protection.

Yes, you get used to Bass.
