box for what? the subs? Yes, you def need a box for the subs, other wise they'll just roll around and be playing free air, thus giving you no bass and 2 busted 10's.

not a box for the subs lol..a box for the actually wiring. he said since my truck is so new or in order for everything to function as it would stock..i need a special wiring kit/box thing..

It's probably an amp.. You should pay more attention to what the guy is saying, before trying to ask questions. If you don't know what he's talking about, how are we supposed to?

He means the harness that allows you to keep your stock chime. Not needed. You can find a harness without the box chime for pretty cheap.

the truck is a 2005..and he said the box will allow the music to still play when the key is out the ignition, have all the chimes etc

what exactly are you trying to put in? just the 2 10's? or a new radio also?

if just the 2 10's...then you need an amp, an amp wiring kit, and possibly a LOC converter.
