Same here and in every truck with a tank behind the seat I have driven you smell gas on hot days as the tank vents though the cap right next to the open window. I've seen a good number of behind the seat tanks leak too so the "safer or safest" spot is total nonsense.
On the fuel cell thing. I think you will find that will not pass tech at any drag strip with the cell inside the passenger compartment. Stock gas tank maybe but not a fuel cell as you have then moved to a different level.You would have to have a firewall between the cell and the rest of the passenger compartment to pass tech.
