W, I've always considered my gas tank on my full size ford directly in the back where the spare tire should be extremely scary & now I see my Chrysler is back there too. Are they made from a stronger steel than a regular gas tank or does it make no difference...they just have to move it? Curious. Dianna The full tanks began in the rear of the van but to meet the federal standards for crash testing they moved the tank or tanks to midsize. Then when the floors were lowered they could not use the same tanks and went with racing bladder cells. Ford also required the tow bar package to protect the tank. Fuel Cells meet NHTSA standards. ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com
