can't go wrong with craigslist.
bought a ford made storage box that goes behind the seat for $25 and a tow hitch for $35.
Both are in very good condition.
What about Dual hu?
I've had all pioneer.
I only paid 3700 for my truck. Don't want to go crazy and spend 500 on hu if you know what i mean.

Pyle = pile of shizz. I've had kicker, mtx, infinity, and alpine subs. All were great. Today I installed an mtx sub I've had for 11 years. Still hits like the day I bought it.

Not from what I have heard and seen, no. A buddy bought two 12's a few years and go and both of them crapped out on him within a year, not to mention, they sounded like garbage.

I wish you lived near me; if so, I would give you a good deal on two 10 inch Alpine E Types with a ported box. I can't get rid of these things for anything.

Sometimes its tough to get rid of audio equipment. I had a 300 watt amp on CL for 20 bux for months. Nobody showed interest so I put it back in the truck.

Yeah, I've found that out. I've got a lot of hits off of Craigslist, but no takers.

Nobody believes me when I tell them I'm running 2 12 inch Sony xplods. That I bought used for 40 bucks each. With a concept 275 watt mono amp I also bought for 40 used. And a 60 dollar pair of pioneers no amp just a jvc kd-r438 it sound good and makes women...... you know when the sit in my truck. Some systems will surprise you

Well it looks like a budget minded system is what your looking for. Not everyone had to dump thousands just to have good sound. Pyle subs are dirt cheap for a reason, spend just a few bucks more and get some base model mtx, Sony, rockford fosgate, jbl, kenwood. They don't have to be high end to sound good, even the very cheap base model subs are better quality than the factory speakers you start with. Spend time building a quality enclosure and have it fit nice instead a prefab box that usually isn't custom to the truck. A neat and clean thought out system is better than a thousand buck throw in set up with wires hanging everywhere. You will fool everyone about the quality of subs when you have a killer enclosure. But if Pyle is your budget go for it. But higher quality is only a few bucks more. I shop at sonicelectronix.com. Best deals...
