it's a mustang....I'll eat and drink what I want when I want....I'll thrash it....leave it in the rain....drive it in the snow....it's got to earn it's keep.......it's a utility muscle car....not a freakin peice of art.....ok...

I hate the liner sticking to the cup....

I hate the cup being in the way when I shift.....

although...it's better than my Z06 with the 1/2 inch cup holder which will dump the cup immediately upon the first left turn.......sooooo.........it is what it is....I drive it anyway.....hmmm......maybe I'll start strapping my camel back to my seat....now there's a thought.....

No drinks in your car? **** I pretty much have a cup of coffee glued to my hand all day. The cup holders suck but I rarely put my cup down.

Why don't you all just stop being b----s and shift around the cup when you have a drink in the cup holder. As if that's SUCH a burden...

It is a muscle car after all not much about it is practical nor was it ever intended to be. The definition of muscle car is big engine in a light car. I use mine as a daily but it doesn't bother me. If you want convenience buy another car.

Gotta love newbies finding 4 year old posts and resurrecting them. First the MT82 one this week and now this

A majority of cars have cup holders in the center console. As long as you drive a manual transmission, drinks will get in the way. I'd suggest getting an automatic if it's such a big deal.
