Where does the battery go in a van?

And what does the fuel tank for a van look like?

not what I usually think..... but hey, whatever floats your boat

1/ behind the drivers seat

2/ it runs across the back of the van, behind the rear subframe - it's like a long rectangular box

To answer striped63's question, the battery goes just behind the drivers seat on the floor in a van. But if you need to move the seat further back, you can relocate the battery like this:
