This is actually a short but funny story to me at least. I logged into the forum on Sunday night and found a post that someone made about putting a cupholder in the console, similar to how the Mitsu 3k GTs have and checked out the other autothos solutions as well. Currently I use the forward to backward seat adjustment levers and only allow bottled soda and bottled water in my car to drink. This gets tricky when I have a passenger because I don't use the lever on the drivers side, and hate reaching over the console when I have a passenger in the car and we are going on a long trip. So I decided to try one of these ideas, but when I got to Walmart they didn't have anything like the ones everyone posted, because our"Super" Wal Mart sucks. Anyway I found a nice cupholder that is supposed to be fastened to the back of a car seat for passengers in the back, and thought this would work great by hanging it or finding a way to fasten it to my umbrella hooks. After I got home I quickly went to the garage exited that this could be pretty sweet to have two bottle holders for long trips. Unfortunately or fortunately however you look at it, my idea was a bust. The cupholder device was too long to fit between the seats with no way to modify the length.

So the next day I grab a pint bottle of milk from my fridge, climb in my truck and notice that my garage door was left open over night. Confused I went to the garage closed the garage door, then got back into my truck and headed to work. Not more than five miles out of town I decide to take a drink of my strawberry milk. I reach for the milk, go to shake it up and for no explanation at all the cap goes flying off soaking me and the interior of my truck with strawberry milk.

Let this be a warning to all of you with cupholders in your cars, and those who forget to close the garage door over night.

Has anyone else made the Crossfire god angry? I would like to hear more stories.

 

I'm still laughing at this one....hold on.......

 

Now that I have stopped laughing, I don't allow any drinks in my little beauty....but, I bought a large coke at a McDonald's...they are the big plastic cups, I hate them, but bought one anyway, put the lid on, walked out the door, went to climb up into the big rig, and squeezed a little too hard, and yes, you guessed it, popped the lid, coke everywhere, boy was I P!ssed....and looked like I had too.....

 

No, but this makes me pause....

 

Almost always get a one liter pepsi in a bottle - ever since a few years ago I had to panic stop and my cup drink went a flying (a major mess). now a bottle with a scewed on cap.
