[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8791326, member: 614752"] I haven't thought much of Polk since the early 90s when they outsourced their manufacturing but the name does pop up around here as a decent budget option. Personally I've always had great luck with the JBL/Infinity lineup and run JBL components in a couple vehicles here currently. I would avoid entry level JL or other premium brands. I'd avoid entry level in general but particularly out of the premium brands. There's likely a few good "shallow mount" subwoofer options and it shouldn't take much to pressurize a pickup truck cabin if you want to add something like that later. For me I wouldn't look at this is only driving in a few times a month, I'd look at it as a vehicle you're likely to own for a decade or more which would make more incentive for me to do a nice soundsystem that would last for the service life of the truck. My 250 is pretty much only for plowing and some hauling occasionally and I did a decent soundsystem in it... if rust weren't going to make it a yard truck only in a few years I'd probably be walling it (I may do so anyway).
