The likely driver for the tank relocation is public peception. Remember the GM truck with the "side saddle" tanks? Was it CBS and Dan Rather(biased) "creating" another story by staging a crash where the truck blew up? Seems to me it took several tries and ultimately required a tank full to the top of the neck, a loose gas cap, and a model rocket engine to get it to burn. After that one story, all the millions of GM trucks are deathtraps.
