Anybody remember the days when there weren't cup holders in every nook and cranny of a vehicle? It almost seems like a competition today to see how many we can have. In many vehicles, the cup holder is in the way and doesn't hold the cup/can/bottle very well anyway. Have we become that needy on drinks that we need them with us everywhere we go? I'm speaking about myself also as I take a bottle of water with me every time I leave the house, but when did I start doing that? I never used to. Do I really need this water with me all the time? Just questions to ponder.
My wife just got an Audi S4 and the front cup holders are directly under the control panel overhang. A 16oz bottle barely fits depending on the shape. Looks like it was designed for cans only.
