Wow you have a pretty impressive vehicle. Who do I have to give a reach around to get a listen while sitting on OP's lap?

Just take this into account. First, you wanted a semi-new van to put a killer daily system in. Everybody on here said that was a stupid idea and to just get a daily driver and a beater. Seems like a good idea now. Now, you say you want to sell the van and buy an old beater. Everybody on here says that would be a stupid idea, you've got too much invested. Contrary to popular belief there are some halfway intelligent individuals posting, take their advice into account.

I always wanted an older one, but my mom is retarded and wanted me to have something with a warranty. Like Ive ever had a vehicle keep a warranty when I was done with it...

ill send you the other 12.86 afterwards.

I want the money up front. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

This.

Way too much invested in the Express, its got so much potential, I say fix the issues with it, keep it and pick up something else to drive daily.

Who says your daily has to be a POS? Could be something nice, but cheap.

monkey, my astro was a daily driver for 2 years, 16 12's and , 9 batteries and 2 alts, 164.4 on music, the astro is agreat platform to build from, my only problem was suspension, i broke many rear leaf springs - it was not intended to hold that much weight, do it again, i would bag it all the way around.

I think i found my next bass platform, my friends wife drivers a mid 90's 2 door blazer xtreme, they are talking about trading it in, told him i want it.

going to 20's all the way around, bags, flip axle and spindles, when it goes down its going to rest on the ground, I am talking with a company now for equiptment sponsorship, they are releasing the new 18's and new amps in about 2 months, lloking very good for a 100% sponsor on equiptment, now got to find a wire sponsor.....

24 15's and asstons of batteries > 16 12's and 9 batteries.

Chuck has way more weight to deal with.

Oh and proof of 164.4 on music or B.S.

If I did an Astro I could put Johnnys old 16 12 box in it for free, get 16 12s for cheap, run 2 of my Sundowns temporarily, and have a system that would do 150 for about $450 out the door. Hmmmmm.

Ah ok, so I guess we're talking about something in the mid 150's (maybe touch a high 150) on todays meters?
