I am either going to do 2 10" xs subs Or 2 10 " ti Subs
and yes one on each side . I have had the xs's in the truck since the middle of 2007 and felt like a change LOL . may just give them a little more power .......

from some recent experience, make sure you use a metric ass ton of sound deadening on the doors. the mids need the back wave separated to really make their midbass work.
and even though they PLAY down to 40hz, cross them over a bit higher. the neo magnets can get hot and they loose their magnetizing ( i will post pics of my mids, "demagnetized" and "new"

Then you can sell me the XS subs.

Gotta love the SY/TY!
I raced a Lightning in a TY a few years back, he held his own... for a bit.
Great full size truck though. Though I'm a GM man, I do like the ford FS trucks.

a good friend of mine had a syclone with some upgrades, super quick and awd - badass!
a good friend of mine has a lighting with some upgrades, ridiculous and scary fast!
i am partial to the blue ovals, i drove a rather fast ford everyday for five years, but both the syclone and the lightning a really cool trucks IME/IMO.
