Are there any hidden compartments in the 2nd gen ST?

I was just wondering if there are any secret compartments in the 06-11 ST? Other than the three in the bed of course. There is a weird hole underneath the cup holders, not sure what that is though. Thanks.

hole under the cup holders is for when the actuator for the lock on the shifter fails so you can bypass it with a screw driver and get it into gear. Its like ford knew they were going to fail. 200 bucks in replacement parts or the alternative of snapping off the tab with a pair of pliers.

That's 2007-10. 2006 or 2011 models were never made.

okay thanks for the info tech by trade, I guessing there aren't any actual hidden areas in the truck.

and swshawaii I should have just used the term 2nd gen. but thanks for the heads up.

Wouldn't say its much of a hidden compartment, but if you have the subwoofer behind the drivers rear seat, the perforated cover pops off. I suppose there is room enough in there to stash a pair of gloves. Example:

Just move to Colorado and you don't have to worry about hiding your weed.

Just be aware of the "nosy" dogs when you're crossing the TJ border.
