How often do you drive solo vs with passenger?

If mostly solo then Search Amazon for "car organizer" and place in passenger seat with seatbelt, quickly tosses in back when needed.

Or a back of the seat organizer with cup holder pockets if carry passenger frequently

and I'll re-recommend a cheap $10 stretchy cargo net that keeps all your crap from flying forward into the cockpit when some azzhat pulls out in front of you and neglects to press the go pedal ( a near daily occurrence in the land of the living dead in Florida (sorry old folks!)) attached to the cargo cover points on the hatch so it lifts magically out of the way

You let one person eat in the car and it's all downhill from there. Gotta love finding a bricked french fry under the seats... especially when you can't remember the last time you had french fries

If you are trying to find a cup-holder to accommodate a Budweiser Tallboy, then why not just use your knees like everyone else?

LOL!

That's how all my friends and I learned to drive--though there were no tallboys (or cupholders) at the time. However, some substituted 70c quart bottles of Country Club malt liquor. No one had to worry about spilling beer in anyone's car--we couldn't afford the financial loss. The good old days--but thank goodness they are past!

I hate wet crotches when accelerating,,i have found that if u put the opening to the front of car it minimizes collateral damages and I always wear black pants

I used to be able to pull 1.0 lateral G's while holding a glass in one hand without spilling. it is an acquired skill.

Is sarcasm against forum rules?
