[QUOTE="k_schutte, post: 6805867, member: 551817"] Some may remember on St. Patrick's day my Cadillac was totaled. Well, I was saving up some money for a new vehicle and had about $2K for a down payment and decided to say **** that car payments and just buy something out right. So, I found a 2000 Dodge Durango Sport for $2500, ended up getting it for $2K because the guy needed some money pretty quick for some business expenses (he owns a little construction company). Anyways, It already has an alarm/keyless entry so that was helpful, It is a Texas car, not a single spot of rust! it is AMAZING imo, being form Iowa, even the 2009 cars around here are rusting up under neath... ANYWAYS, build looks like this: head unit: Eclipse CD8445 sub stage: 18" Fi BTL, fully loaded, universal, D2 Digital Designs Z1 8.5ft^3net @ 33hz daily and 40hz for comps single 12" or two 8" aeros (need to research this more) Mids/Highs: SoundStream TRC.6n's (two sets) SoundStream RUB600.4 Electrical: 4 runs of 1/0 2) C&D 350's 100A stock alternator 300A Ohio Generator alt I decided to start the thread before the build [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/suicide.gif.a649d21efc0d1fd4890a6428166586c1.gif[/IMG] so for now, here are some pics of the equipment and the vehicle.
