So true. The cone is displacing air when it moves and if there's nowhere for it to go, the pressure can cause damage. Bouncing the sound off of the hatch makes a noticeable difference as well. When I had my 15's and my 12 in my old car, I made multiple boxes for different orientations of the subs to find which position and angle sounded the best.

Bass may be omni-directional, but there are other factors. If your sub doesn't have the leads woven into the spider, they can slap against the sub and cause mechanical noise, which tends to be louder if your subs face into the cab. I always had my subs facing backwards and firing in reverse phase. I got the same amount of kick and smooth bass.
