Is something burning under your backseat perhaps.

You're probably smelling sulphur, either hydrogen sulphide (rotten egg gas) or a mercaptan (skunky, rotting cabbage). Sulphur is contained in poor grade fuels and comes off the catalytic converters sometimes. Make sure that you are using fuel from a reputable (National brand) gas station. Otherwise, its an issue with your catalytic converters, i.e. they are dieing and could need replacement.
