Show me your cup holders
What do you guys do for cup holders? Usually when I drive the car there is someone else with me and quite often we will be driving some distance. On a recent outing I really missed my cup holder. My wife always has to start a trip with one of those 55 gallon drinks from Sonic and that built in cup holder just is not getting it.

Do a search on here. There already exists a thread
with pictures, comments, and where you can buy them.
I purchased my cupholder from a vendor that advertises on this site. I believe he calls himself Willful one. Great holder.

travel buddy is the best one out there as far as i am concerned. easy to remove if you want and large enough to handle the biggest of big gulp cups. i have a double in neutral to match my interior and can't imagine life without it.

Thermos makes a SS cooly cup that fits very snug in the OEM cup holder. No issues with spillage. But it's size is only good for regular water bottles and beer...I mean soda cans. (Model 2700 Vacuum Insulated Beverage Can Insulator)
A friend bought me one years ago and I was so impressed by the insulating capability that I purchased a half dozen more for every day use.
As for the passenger, they have to hold their own.

Thanks
Thanks for everyone's replies. After going and sitting in the car and thinking about the options, I'm not crazy about any of them. The 6m and location of the ashtray complicates things even more. Have to think about this a little more but there is not much "spare" room in there.
