You know what would be the absolutly perfect cupholder? Is the exact same buldge in teh passangerside door panal, only on the driverside. Would be PERFECT. I wish they would have thought of that. I do use the passangerside door panal a lot, but smaller drinks flop around, larges on the otherhand fit perfect.. The center console can be used, but Its a PITA, and that rubber thing always sticks to the bottom of the f'n cup..

I just buy those little 6oz. cans of coke because they fit perfectly. Anybody tried making a little gold fish bowl out of it?

Why not just put you one of them convenient little spit cans in there? Keeps all the spit crud off the side of your car.

nowhere to put it. the cupholder is already full of seeds and the other hand is for shifting/steering/cellphone/radio/turnsignals

as you can see i have my priorities straight

I absolutely love the passenger side cupholder which is in hiding. All the other ones are pretty much useless...

actually, my wife figured out the one in the door before i did, then again nobody but me drives it so ive only been in the passenger seat once...center cupholder is for my cell, smokes and lighter...they all fit perfectly. if its a 20 oz or liter bottle it goes between my leg and the console, anything else rests bwtween my legs....

Center cupholder - 12 ounce Miller Lite is tolerable. 16 is a bit of a PITA but doable. 24 ounce can, I gotta be real thirsty to put up with that. They all flop around in the pull out one in the passenger side. 24 ounce bottle on up goes twixt me legs.

Don't try this at home, kids. I'm a trained professional.
