I was referring to the floor of the trunk being the top of the gas tank.

Lee Ayrton did pass the time by typing:
From what I've heard it's also because they moved the spare where the tank used to be. It is safer there, but then again a fuel cell with double walls would be even safer. :)
That's ok.. fairly soon most of us will only be able to afford gas one mile at a time.

Crown Vics generally have had the spare on top of the fuel tank since the early 80's, the tank located just behind and above the rear axle, so the trunk space would be as deep as possible. Don't know if the Police Interceptor has a different location for the spare, but I can't think of a reason why they would.
Not if I get to pick the road course. :) _____________________________________________________________________

ARGH !!!!
It's a stinkin Liberty knock-off. Look at that front !!!
I just got out of my '88 4 cyl, ragtop baby. Crawled right on through the snow we were hit with. She has a little iron cancer on the rear corners which I'm going to go after this summer. Put a new roof and seats in it last year. Well over 100,000 miles and still going strong. I debated a couple of times about buying a new one but I just can't do it. Those new Jeeps just don't fit me well. My baby is stripped to the bare minimum. I got'er like that new and have been lovin it ever since. Granted the '88 isn't the classic Jeep but I may just get buried in this thing. LOL !!! After all I have buried her up to the floor in mud and she crawled out. I'm still amazed what a 4 cyl. can do when it is a Jeep. Somebody needs to take a look at what a Jeep really is.... Utility, ruggedness, fun. The heck with the rugs, AC, stereo, hard top.... I like my Jeeps raw and that's the way they should be.
