Default Where to mount air tank?

I'm bagging my 2005 Tahoe and can't decide on where to mount my Air tank. I don't really want to get rid of my spare. The only other location is between the frame rails just behind the front bumper. Anybody have any other creative suggestions?

Paint it up nice to match interior and mount it off to one side in cargo area.

Screw the third row seat.................... I wish I could draw this out for you but I will try to explain it to the best of my ability. Center the air tank in the cargo area from side to side and then measure out where your subs and amps will go. then re center air tank from frt to bck. Then have your custom sub enclosure and amp rack built around the air tank in the center of it all. Then have it all painted to match or to compliment eachother. You understand any of that at all or get what I am trying to explain??

How big of a tank is it? You could cut out a space in the floor to make a sub-floor; that way it would be hidden and you could put stuff on top of it. I agree with joesilver though too; just take out the third row.
