ColdwaterHotrod Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 The Big cup holder next to the armrest has what looks to be a (spill mat) in the bottom of it, but if you grab the tab in between the two cup holding areas & pull that (spill mat) straight out it reveals & MUCH deeper drink holder? Just thought I would bring this up for those of you WHO DON'T READ MANUALS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sprint200 Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Someone, many moons ago, had posted about this; but I didn't understand until I was detailing the interior for a car show and noticed the tab had pulled up a bit. But seeing that the "No Drink/No Food" policy in mine has yet to be violated, it is just a novelty to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just thought I would bring this up for those of you WHO DON'T READ MANUALS Coldwater, I'm surprised you hadn't heard about this earlier. It's better known as the 24/45 standard equipment option. Yes, that's correct the 24/45. You'll probably ask what the nomenclature stands for. We'll it is rather simple. It's engineered from the factory to comfortably hold a "24" oz. can of Colt "45".

KCMO-GT500 Posted May 10, 2007 Report Share Posted May 10, 2007 Would it also hold 24 oz of Alloy paint? since white is faster than alloy, you'll never catch me to put any of that stuff in my cupholder Dave, hope all is going well John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUFDRAFT Posted May 10, 2007 Report Share Posted May 10, 2007 Interesting point. Ever wonder where your car will be shown in 40 years? People will walk around it and wonder how it felt driving it. (they'll be driving corn-fed golf carts that hum) What would they give to be able to ask you how it felt to here the blower go weeeee! They won't know. Sad.

That is why I am driving this one like I stole it cuz I highly doubt I will be here in 40 years. If only I had thought about my Mach 1 40 years ago and not driven it!

KCMO-GT500 Posted May 10, 2007 Report Share Posted May 10, 2007 ..I'm not sure my shelby will be around in 40 years. If I die before I sell it, then one of my boys will inherit it; if that happens its life expectancy probably goes waaaaay down, since all they drive now are underpowered trucks etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
