Ported boxes hit harder but IMO they are not as "clean" of a bass sound when compared to a sealed box. Our trucks don't have the room under the seats for a correctly sized ported box, unless it was custom made and/or used those shallow mount subs.

I have always ran 12s before these 10s. I had 2 12s in a 87 toyota and it was beating clocks off the wall. lol I miss having a 12, but would settle for a 12, but like you said, there isnt enough room for a properly ported box.
Yes there is if you go with one sub that requires more power but less airspace Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk
After 5 years working automotive electrical at the chassis up fitter, I worked as a MECP installer at a major retail store. Installing systems in other people's rides. The notable ones were the cars that came in with their factory wiring looking like someone had taken a hacksaw to them. Frayed beyond belief, they appeared to be some sort of copper wire art that looked like a bush or tree.
