Cup holder?

Most likely the biggest bighest let down is no having a cup holder for my coffee or giant fountain pops. Came across these today. Has anyone used this on before?

Re: Cup holder?

I've seen several guys from the board use them, looks like it should work good.

Re: Cup holder?

I have those in my Chevelle and El Camino and they work great for any drink the size of a Coke can but I have a different plan for my truck.

Re: Cup holder?

They work good. No complaints in structural, or durability. The only complaint is a design flaw, the size of the socket for the cup itself, for instance, a 20oz or 24oz average coffee cup or a typical 20oz "pop" bottle, or any typical can fit good and don't tumble out when going around a turn. However, anything larger, or different size ( like a 1 liter "pop" bottle, or a Arizona tea can ) or shape, ( like a 20oz Lipton sweet tea, or a most Gatorade bottles) go tumbling to the floorboard and spills all over your interior, or worse, rolls up under the brake pedal. We had one in a 69 C30 dump bed, it didn't stay in use for long. lol. I recommend either a bench seat console, You can put it either on the seat or on the trans hump. they're much more stable, and generally have more features also
