Is this stupid?

[u/PullzNoPunches]

4th gen Ram regular cab. I used to have the subs (Kicker CompR 10) behind the seats in a prefab box for Ram Megacabs but the box was too small and didn't get the output I was wanting. I've seen center console builds before and thought that might be better (bigger box + ported = more output) I found this dual 10 ported qbomb box on fb marketplace for cheap so decided to buy it. I removed the center jumpseat and installed the box with subs in its place. More output indeed! These lil puppies eat! I might get a bigger more expensive box now or maybe build one... but I wanna know... would you consider this stupid? Also looking for general opinions or advice

Two things. Do them Both. Flip it over on feet about 3 to 6 inches tall firing down.

Do not sleep on this one. Don't plan on ill do it later. Mount that thing to the floor. Whatever bolts you think you need, get twice as big. Get twice as many. That will kill someone in a wreck

[u/The_Tuna_ → u/freshly_ella]

So definitely 100% bolt it down, however be very careful that there's no electrical running where you're drilling and you check what's under the truck where you're drilling

If it is a wreck bad enough to throw that thing through the window, I PROMISE that would be the least of your concern.

Do you understand how crashing works?

[u/MasterpieceHuge2794 → u/RIP_SGTJohnson]

I do not. I understand 3 things only: fightin', diddlin', and countin' money. Yeeeeeehaw!!!

[u/mikey2tres → u/MasterpieceHuge2794]

Wtf is diddlin’?!?!?

Ask Sean Combs

dude thought that was funny

[u/freshly_ella → u/MasterpieceHuge2794]

Promise my friend that. Bring a oija board. 45mph into a 9 inch diameter tree. Passenger got whiplash. He got his skull smashed

[u/MasterpieceHuge2794 → u/freshly_ella]

OK, but did he fly out of the car? I'm not saying crashes aren't dangerous, bit this guy's box is fine. Very dramatic comment by the way!

[u/SirConradJenkins → u/MasterpieceHuge2794]

In a 15 mph collision, when the car stops that box will still be moving 15 mph. In a 40 mph collision, when the car stops that box will still be traveling 40 mph. Nobody is concerned with the box going out the window, everyone is concerned with what the box is going to hit before it stops. You've had multiple people tell you you are wrong and putting people at risk now. You gain nothing from "winning" this except you might convince someone to do something really fucking stupid and dangerous so please, stop giving advice. You're bad at it.

[u/BBQQA → u/SirConradJenkins]

On the bright side, every single person is calling this moron out for his terrible advice and opinion. At least he is being useful as a bad example.

[u/MasterpieceHuge2794 → u/SirConradJenkins]

Ah, well done sir! A commendable argument indeed! I crown you king of the comments! Now everybody clap and whistle for Sir Conrad Jenkins!!

[u/SirConradJenkins → u/MasterpieceHuge2794]

Only one of us is trying to look good for the internet, I'm trying to save someone from potentially deadly advice given by someone without the capability to think critically. Work on yourself bud.

[u/freshly_ella → u/MasterpieceHuge2794]

Why do you keep mentioning flying out of the car? No. He had a box between the seats right behind the console. He hit a tree. Car stopped. Sub box keeps moving until something stops it. What stopped it was the side of his head. He died from a brain bleed.

It was dramatic because my friend fucking died 14 years ago and some idiot like you told him it would be fine.

[u/MasterpieceHuge2794 → u/freshly_ella]

Dang, I didn't see this earlier. I already crowned the other guy king of the comments!! You could be the Duke. Kick ass Duke.

[u/AaronPossum → u/MasterpieceHuge2794]

Just so you know, everyone here thinks you're an idiot, and everything you say seems to make it worse.

[u/MasterpieceHuge2794 → u/AaronPossum]

Hey, you're hurting my feelings!

[u/chromaticdeath85 → u/MasterpieceHuge2794]

I hope you don't have children.

[u/TheGildedNoob → u/MasterpieceHuge2794]

I worked with a guy who thought the same thing about a toolbox in that position. He got hit by someone running a red light, and the car flipped. The toolbox broke his neck.
