So the problem right now is that her car is a 2004 Envoy XUV. It has two cup holders and one of them holds her giant coffee cup, the smaller one holds her normal sized coffee mug and she holds her third giant coffee cup in her hands.

My license in Indiana has been suspended for the past 3 months and I'm about 20 days away from getting it back (hopefully)... Since her Envoy is a gas guzzling V8 and mine is a LD9 4 cyl, she has been driving my car for the better gas mileage and for the past 6 weeks her car has been in the shop for a slew of warranty repairs in excess of $5000.

In my car, her normal coffee cup fits in the decent cup holder, and I put one of her giant cups into the center console and prop her other giant one up behind her purse on the passenger seat.

But after I can drive again, I personally like the design of the flip out cup holderbetter. It will hold two 44 oz drinks side by side. Currently I can put one 44 oz in the good cup holder and a carefully placed 20 oz drink in the front (if I am driving in a straight line)
