Yes, you could build your own. But it won't be a "stealth" box. They look custom built, like the ones you have to pay $800+ for right now since they don't make such a box for the Xterra.

And it's sad to see that someone whose occupation is "K-12 Student" can afford a $30K Xterra, so I'll just assume you got a little (a lot) "help". (Also, if you did a little more research, you could get it for less than that)

Why is this even an argument? Some people like to just buy something and others may take pride in doing it themselves. You can bet that the JL box is going to be very expensive for what you get. That's the nature of buying a premade box; especially one from JL. It may be ported too and some people may not want that. To argue over premade or self build is stupid. Look at what N2 did. His job is way better than anything JL will build and probably was half as expensive because he built it himself. Some of us want to be able to remove our subs easily too or some may prefer a different brand of woofer. Lots of different factors. I'd almost bet money that if JL offers a box it will cost atleast $600 anyway. To top it off, the JL boxes are nice, but not spectacular. A properly built custom box will easily outperform a JL premade. Different strokes for different folks.
