If I am not mistaken, Crutchfield.com offers a subwoofer box designed to fit under the rear seat.

No offense mate but it's a truck... You kill sound quality with a subwoofer in that tiny of a place... Get better speakers with a good low end and a head unit to drive them... You'll get better sound quality without fucking up the sound imaging... But that's just me. If you're simply wanting loud then by all means a big ass 12 inch is the way to go... Just not my cup o' tea.

Let me know how that goes because i have the same truck and im trying to install 2 12" audiobahns. Hard to find a box though

go to jl audio and see if they have a stealth box for that truck instead of going with the audiobahns.

A company called Atrend (atrendusa.com) is a good place to start. They make lots of custom gm truck enclosures. I just ordered a custom fit box for my 07 denali crew that fits under the rear seat, but it's for two 10s. You can find them at bestbuy, but I ordered mine from hookedontronics.com for about $80 total with shipping!

You should double check, but I believe this would be a perfect fit for the truck you describe, for $75 with free shipping and no tax (link below)! For about $50 more you can get one coated in spray in bedliner material. You can also find these on bestbuy.com. http://www.hookedontronics.com/show_product_details.jsp?cid=159787&brandtype=4549
