Not since about 1984 when gasoline powered vehicles put the pump in the fuel tank.


Our 70 Dodge pickup has its pump in the tank, which is right behind the seat. Kind of

Our Ford pickup trucks had the tank behind the seat.
Never heard of one doing bad things in a crash but that was a long time ago.
