I would use kicker cvr's over the w0 for your application. The W0 just isnt a sturdy enough woofer to put up with what you sound like your gonna put it through. They arent bad subs by any means but they arent gonna give you the output your looking for IMO. I sell both at my shop but the CVR has a higher power handling and are generally a louder, more durable sub in my experience. And you should be able to get  a pair in your price range pretty easily.

Let me through this at you, A friend of mine had a '94 Chevy SS truck and put two 15" Volcano subs in the bed, but what he did that differs from what you're thinking of doing, is he built a 6th order bandpass box for the subs and ran 4" ports (flex tube) from the bed to the cab. He then put 5 1/4" speaker grills over the ports on the inside of the cab for a clean look. Bed had a cover on it and it had rhino lining.
Only the amps remained in the cab on the back wall.

that couldnt have sounded good at all. if you want a system that only plays loud and has a very narrow frequency response and doesnt sound good even with the notes it does hit, then by all means use the bandpass box.
also, flextube for a port? that just doesnt sound like a good idea. never done it before but i just dont see how that could sound right.

Went ahead and ordered a set of kicker 15" CVX with dual 4 ohm voice coils. I had a set once upon a time of the inverted cone kicker comps and was very impressed. Figured it was time to give kicker another test drive and see if they will pound like my memory says they used to.

Anyone have some real world feedback on the newer kicker cvx subs or their subs in general from the last few years.

of their entire line up, the CVX is probably the best sub they make. its basically a round L7 which means its not quite as loud as an L7 but it doesnt have the typical problems of a square design. they are loud and they can take some abuse but dont treat them like they are competition quality either.

That being said they should last me quite well. I want them to hit hard when I'm ready to rattle my teeth out. But for 3/4 of the time they will be at a sane level doing daily driver duty.
