Has anybody had any luck with fosgate full range truck boxes? I have an 89 f150 reg cab, and need some thump.

I looked briefly on a full-range box, but passed on it due to limited space behind the seat of my std. cab. What I did (and my stereo is an on-going process for now), is I installed a pair of Rockford Fosgate 10" Punches in a pair of truck boxes I picked up at a local stereo shop. A little work and creativity, and I go them installed with the Rockford 100a2 amp mounted on a custom built brace. Granted, the boxes are only 0.65 cu feet of air space, and the subs need 0.75 cu feet, I need to add some polyfill, but it kicks pretty good. With a standard cab truck, you'll never get the deep, resonating bass that you hear in various cars, due to the fact that they have more open air space, which is essential for bass to resonate and increase in volume.
I need to replace the factory speakers in the doors, which I plan on doing with a pair of 6.5", aluminum cone mids with 1" tweeters on the dash. All in all, I'm happy with it for now, and if I really want insane bass, I drive my brother's 95 Civic, but that's a different story. Check out my webpage, I've got a few pictures of my installation and if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. Good luck.
