Help!! I've made a mess.

I had some motor oil in a gallon jug taking to recycle but it had spilled and the whole gallon dumped out in the back of my explorer. I got most of it out by using rags and shampooing w/wetvac. I can still feel a bit of oil remaining tho. Any suggestions on how get it cleaned up?
