Waaaaaayyyyyy to close to the muffler. The heat cycles that thing will see will kill it in no time, if it doesn't end up with a hole first. It may just be the picture, but man, that's closer than I would be comfortable with.

I mounted mine up in the bed, above where the floor will be. Gives easy access and you've got many different options for a cover.
