    I got sort of "chased down" by one bad ass white tundra today. He caught up to me on dowling at old Seward. Finally got next to me as we were turning towards opposite directions and waved. Is there a Tundra associated person on here or maybe one of our group knows? He was really antsy to say hi to me.

    Mike, let me know what you think of the amp.

    Chase, I've loved Alpine for decades. I might have to sell a kidney and get that amp if the Pioneer amp isn't enough. The box I'm getting is for shallow subs so I'm thinking the Pioneer sub is good enough......I hope

    Everything I've heard about those pioneer subs is they're top notch too. Just looked at them the other day.

    Ok cool, thanks Ben. I miss having some bass in my truck, had a nice set up in my old Avalanche but when my daughter was born, had to take them out. Now when she's at school I can crank those babies up!

    Ok ill take a look at it while I'm working today. And you really need to know the volume of the box. The pioneers are notorious for needing very small amounts of air space, so I think it should be fine. But you don't want to put it in a box that's too restricting or is too big.

    Lol the bumper has nothing to do with it! Its not haunted or bad luck. Its actually saved my butt a few times haha.

    On a side note, ive got a 2001 tacoma about to come out of the shop and go on the lot. Perfect starter truck for anyone looking to join the club. Tell anyone who might be interested!

    How much? I have a friend looking for a taco. I think she may be looking for something a bit newer, but if the price is right you never know.

    Buying one with previous body damage just means you won't feel as bad when you add new damage :D

    Same thing for me haha. I don't really mind scratches from tree branches, but I've yet to add a dent myself. Plenty left over from the previous owner though lol.
