If you want to keep your head unit, but add a sub/amp you need to get a line level converter that converts speaker level inputs to RCA for your amp. That can be obtained for +/- 20 dollars anywhere they sell car audio. Somebody else on here will be able to give more advice on your amp and XM.

Each speaker in your truck is a 6x8, and those will run you $50-150 for a pair.
