not in corn fields but parking lots yes lol couple hundred people get together every sunday night so that's when they would get turned on, they wont be at full volume ill have them hooked up to an EQ to adjust the loudness

 
I've got four little Kicker 6.5" co-ax in a little waterproofed box under my 4 door Sonoma on a JL 300/2 that I use for when I'm working out in the yard, grilling out, hanging out, bonfire, etc, etc, etc. I'm quite fond of the little outdoor speaker setup but mine serve the purpose other than being something you hear blaring going down the road just to turn a couple heads. I can see using them for purpose but not just to be that guy.

that does not sound like a bad idea at all, but no the speakers will not be on while I am on the road that's a big no no

 
UPDATE*****

got my box all painted and rhino lined 2 gallons of resin I also pulled the bed so I could be able to bolt the box to the bed and install the subs, I ran all my wire just waiting on my seats so I can know where to run the power/ground wires for my amps once that all done its off to upholstery to get the whole interior done I hope to have it playing by the end of Nov!

 
I have a set of punch 5.25 P152 that I was going to put in my dash but should I upgrade to rockford 4" T142? I'm going to have T2652-S and T1652 in the front doors

 
Hell yea! Another 90 obs build! You can def get a bigger amp with that electrical forsure why you running so little power?
