Tired of those Cup holders.....

[JCunningham]

we need GM licensed Camaro cups for these offending cup holders. they are short and will not interfere with shifting the 6 speed manual transmissions. I for one will ( as your governor) ban the use of my Camaro cup holders until such a necessity is available. A Vote for me is a vote for solution to the camaro cup holder problems we face everyday.

For me is is uncomfortable, plus I'm always worried I'm going to knock over the drink and make a mess.

Well I don't drive with anything bigger than a 12 oz can in there. Why do you need anything bigger than that while driving anyhow? If you do then my next question is, if you put a cover over the cup holders, or eliminate them...how is that an improvement? Do you just hold the drink between your knees? I can see not allowing drinks in the car entirely, but hiding the cup holder doesn't seem like its much of a fix for your problems.

Well, my wife and I have a long commute to work and sometimes we take the Camaro. She brings her travel coffee mug which is pretty big, but even the small travel mugs are bigger than a 12 oz can. Also, even a small drink from any fast food place sticks up higher than the armrest.

I'm with you on the cover though, I don't see any point. I still like to use the cupholders to hold small things like my phone, sunglasses or whatever. I would just like some place to put a drink too.

I just don't get the modern obsession of needing to have a drink with you in the car. Have a drink before you leave home, get another at your destination, if you really need it, and on long journeys stop and relax in a diner somewhere.

This could solve your problem.
