What about a motor bike . . . You know one of those cruisers - Honda Goldwing. Turn the luggage compartments into an enclosure for a couple of 8s or maybe a 12 if there is enough volume. Try and find a way to mount a 3-way component set up front. It would be a really interesting install to do.

Or, something that I have seriously considered in the past few months since I have moved to a farming community - A combine! There isn't too much room in the cabin, could only get 1 or 2 subs in there. But a system would be the best thing to have in one of those things during harvest season.

Bootleg could hook us up with the Ferrari of combines too - what was it? $325K I think?

Might not be lots of room in the cab, but if you hack it apart like most demo vehicles, you don't need the hopper, the cylinder, the walkers or the chopper, etc. lots of room for gear then!

As for tanks, I think I remember seeing one on ebay once...

One thing that I thought of today would be to build a replica of the Ford Archie drove in the Archie comics. Deck it out with the Engine and System. That would attract alot of attention and I don't think it's ever been done.

You could remove the hopper, etc. To put tons of amps at batteries in, but if your doing combine SQ you'll have to keep that. My car is driveable, so should an SQ combime. The cab is nice and wide with a good center chair, but all the glass could be a SQ nightmare.
Acutally, sometime, when I'm not busy were planning on bringing a new combine inside and tinting all the glass. You have any idea how hot those cabs get in the summer
I've never had to heat shrink standing on a ladder either.
So if someone wants a combine for a demo vehicle, let me know, we can get them with XM in them!
