Yeah, my last Ford had the same type flip down platform in the back seat. Made it really easy to put the dog bed back there.
On the new Ford I bought 2 wire rack shelves from Home Depot the length being the width of the longer side of the seat. I used plastic zip ties to tie the two together so the fold in the middle lengthwise. And I made some short legs from small PVC pipe for legs along one edge. With the rear seat folded up, I set the rack in the back seat area, unfold it, and it reaches from the rear of the front seat to the front of the folded up rear seat. The legs support the edge over the floor. Makes a good platform for the dog bed. And I can leave the short side of the seat down in case one of the grandkids is with us. But not nearly as convenient as the old built in platform.i
On the other hand the under seat storage bins do really come in handy.
