I have a ford ranger extended cab and i just bought 2 JL 12W3v2's. i'm a fairly experienced installer (II grad) and was wanting some suggestions on a box to build. I've been through a bunch of different systems. my latest was 3 12 W6's facing down(sealed). i sold them and got these 2 12W3v2's. i was thinking of building another downward facing box (is there any pros or cons to a downward facing box?). i also have 3 amps to put some where so please let me know if theres any ideas out there, i think i've exhaused my mind so i'm lookin for some insight.

basically i just want to know if facing the subs down will be equal to them facing the back of the seats or up.

I had a 95 ford ranger and had a few systems in it. IMO I found that using down firing boxes worked best.
