In a rollover, it will smash every window out after it knocks a tooth out and busts your head open. Haha

Seriously though. I have seen some **** thrown all over the place a d out of open windows in non roll overs. Crazy forces at work. That said I have a 20 pound bag of fire gear in the back of my SUV and a huge tote of camouflage that weighs as much or more. Seats are folded flat. They will ply and bash me in the head or the back of the seats in a collision.
When i head on'd my s10 into the tree i had cinder blocks for weight and a spare tire that all pile drived themselves through the bed front, through the cab rear wall and pushed the seat and me in to the windshield. Was pretty crazy. That tree dead stopped me from about 45ish...

Went to a crash once where a woman was killed coming home from the grocery store. Hit in the back of the head by a jar of pickles. DRT. When it's your time, it's your time...

I dunno. It came in today, and I'm not that impressed. It's made pretty well, but it'll only hold super small cups and cans. None of my Yetis fit. Had to go buy this cup, and it still doesn't really fit. The entire thing blocks my CB, and I'm just over it. I'm experimenting with it in different locations, but regardless it still doesn't hold much. WTF? Why not make the holes bigger, or even do just one large hole?

That's exactly what I read on here awhile back. That confirms my suspicion, and what I read. I'm glad I didn't buy one when I placed an order awhile back. I agree now a days that's a stupid size? Why not make it bigger?

Will it even fit a 20oz bottle? That's been a pretty common drink size for decades!! But 32oz big gulp cups are common from gas stations and everyone uses insulated cups now a days.

It's lame as hell. I doubt it would fit a 20 oz pop bottle. Hard to say, as I try to stay away from drinking that, but from the looks of it I don't see it fitting. I only see this fitting a small water bottle, 12 oz can of pop, or maybe a small paper coffee cup.

I got hit in the head by a boombox sitting on the back of a bench seat and its batteries flew out the window...along with my moms eyeglasses.And the sparetire underneath the truck came loose and rolled eastbound up the highway.

Yep that's exactly what I read on here. That's pointless.

And to make matters worse, it cost like $12 to ship it to me, and if I sent it back, I'd have to pay probably twice that in postage on my dime as well, which means I'm stuck with it.
