Wall your backseat and go with 6 15" audiobahns, make sure to use clear plexiglas for the front of the box so we can see the flames on the speakers

sounds tight, I'd go with a kicker 1000 amp and 2 kicker 10" L7 solobarics



This. Solobarics are the shite. Great quality


Honestly dont need 2 10s but obviously can go with 2. Only thing about it is I know fords have that box under the back seat on the right side (at least the ones I have seen have) which I think is the sub already in there. but Im sure talking to people who do this for a living will know. I havent done that stuff on a new car. I did my 03 Sierra back in HS.

All you need is a ( one) 8" subwoofer with a comparable amp. Anything more and you're trying too hard

Yep.
I had a Dodge 1500 regular cab back in college and I put an 8 in a truck style box behind the drivers seat. Amp was under the seat. It gave it a little bass without being obnoxious.

Of course I managed to put a pair of 10s behind the back seat of a Jeep in high school that would rattle the windows of a car a 1/4 mile away.

Some of these replies are funny I have a 12 f150 and im probably going to do a single 12 under the passenger side back seat so I cna have the space when I flip up the longer back seat. If I didnt do that id do as quoted.

This is the shallow mount 12 I would run LINK

I had a single cab Dodge Dakota in high school. One 8" sub behind each seat. Not too loud but you could feel it on the seat. Loved it.

I can't hear you over my 2 10W3s with a 500x1 JL amp. At least in college I couldn't.

Sometimes I wish I had an 8 in a stealth box for when I'm jamming. I go through trucks like the dickens and they won't let me change the factory radios in the company trucks. So I'm stuck missing my old system.

Why not? Most stock systems are terrible.

Listening to my music in my vehicle is not nearly as enjoyable as at my house due to the lack of bass. I'd like to get a sub too. It doesn't mean I want to drive around with my trunk rattling.

What about a self amplified 8" bazooka? Not too much bass, but enough to round out the music. Self amplified makes for easier insallation.
