Anyway, I can't believe I never noticed this before... I musta forgot.
But, in my 2001, in the back seat area, there is that big hump in the foot area in the center. Why is that there? What's in that area?
It seems to me like only rear-wheel drive cars (with front mounted engine) should have this. WTF>?!

It's there for two reasons....
First, a middle hump adds a great deal to structural rigidity. Without the hump the chassis flex would be tremendous.
Second, that is where your exhaust runs. Convenient.
