[QUOTE="BertoM, post: 7491777, member: 636775"] So I just bought my first truck, a 2004 F150 Lariat Supercrew. I want to beef up the sound, but I know close to nothing about subs/amps/wiring. I don't need a $2000 system with the best of everything, just something decent. I don't want to be rattling everyone else's cars while sitting at a stop light 24/7, however, I would like the ability to do a decent job every once in a while. So I know the 2004-2008 Supercrews aren't the best for putting subs in. I have pretty much narrowed down the box I am going to get to a Fox box.
