Things I learned
After 5 years and 3 crossfires today I learned something new. While playing with my cup holder I noticed if you squeeze the top of it it will unlock from the up position, and you won't have to force it shut.
One other thing, Evan taught me Friday that if I push down all the way on the window switches they will go all The way down. Who knew lol.

It took me about 3 years to find the hidden compartment in the ash tray that holds quarters. And I didn't even know our hoods go up on a 90 degree angle. Learned that on the forum. That is what happens when you don't read the manual.
I still think I have been driving crossfires longer than you

I've owned mine since Jan 2010, and the other nite when I had the lights on, I opened the ashtray and noticed it was lighted. Never use the ash tray, except to store the cigar liter in it while I have the Garmin plugged in.
Also .... noticed a small black cushion/Disc where the console lid rests against the wall behind the seats.

Coin holder I found the first night when it came off the covered truck on May 5th 2005.

Re: Things I learned
Yeah that's what I was thinking of. FYI, a ton of cars have this. The only thing I don't like about that is sometimes you feel like you're pressing down so far it's going to break the switch, through it never does...
Good to know about the cupholder though, I'll give it a try. usually when it's all the way up I give it a smack to get it past the locking mechanism... nice to know there's a gentle way of doing it.

I remember riding my bicycle in the fog in England in the fifties and realizing that I had a string of cars and buses behind me that were following me because I could see farther in the thick fog than they could. That was the good old days and dirty coal.
