Guys,
This is not helpful advice - really! Next you'll suggest if you don't want to waste gas don't drive!

Please. At no point in my original query did I say I want to drink (or smoke, where the
heck did that come from???) while driving. I guess the Genius didn't even read his
own reply since I'm not sure how I'm supposed to drink my drink after I get out of the
car without being able to transport it??? which is my original concern. I don't want
to drink while driving. I use my car daily - and when I buy lunch to take back to work,
I want someplace to hold the drink - that's a pretty reasonable request.

Many people have written with good suggestions - It's clear our cars were not designed
to deal with this issue - and it's a real issue worth real suggestions. 
And there have been enough responses to let
me know this is a concern for many of us. Frankly, I see an opportunity here for someone
to design and sell something tailored to our cars - that's what this forum is for.
