i am having a great deal of difficulty locating a subwoofer for my 2001 ford explorer sport trac, due to not having much room. i am considering building one out of pvc pipe. it will probably house a 6-8 inch subwoofer. i don't know anything about building a subwoofer and am open to suggestions re: my delimma. i am considering pvc pipe due to the rigidity. please help!!!!!

You want a material that doesn't "ring" when you
tap it with a hammer or your fingernail.

Cardboard tubes work well for subwoofers although
they will roll around in the truck unless fastened to the floor.

A ceramic or cement drain pipe would work too, but both are
heavy and you could get caught when stealing them from a
construction site!

Hsu has a 12" sub driver in a cardboard tube that is not that expensive. I think you'd have to provide the amplifier and
crossover for it.
