Thank you for your perspective.
My wife wanted a coffee and the kids tacked on begging for refreshers. I decided to get myself one too. I guess this makes me climate enemy #1. I'll tell Taylor she can keep flying her jet around, because I'll cancel my once-a-week indulgence.
What it really is is that, when you are transporting multiple drinks, most cars don't give much of an option for where to put them. You can scatter them throughout various cupholders, or you can put the tray on the slanted passenger seat where it will not doubt leak onto your upholstery.
In 24 years of driving I've never had a car that solved this particular problem. Making this discovery oddly satisfying.
