I personally would keep the blazer. If his won 3rd at the show, yours would of taken 1st. Subs are a dime a dozen here, blazers are the ticket.  I would thank him for the offer, and wish him a good day.  The sub doesn't look much better than the one in your previous post that was used for parts. Unless you have a faimly of more than 5, I wouldn't think twice about it, and if you do have a larger family, then look into the rules as far as roof mounted seats, and or in running shoes for the strongest one,lol. Even making two trips would be better. I don't see where you would be upgrading my friend.

good choice.  I am a sub fan, but, you have character in that Blazer.  I just looked at the old threads again...very nice.

You made the right choice, I don't care how clean that sub was.  Plus the shorter wheelbase make the Blazer easier to maneuver on tiny UK streets.
