ZPrecision cup holder

Who else ordered one? I got in on the pre-order and got shipping notification a couple days ago. I’m stoked!
Hoping to take some good pics of the install.

For reference, this is what I’m talking about:

I love it, but im debating if its worth $80 (after shipping and tax).....

 

It was a bit pricey but I think it will be worth it to me.

 

I’ve wasted some money but even I would not waste 80 bucks on this.

 

My chalk bags were cheaper...not much cheaper, but cheaper.

 

^ I think most people opt for the side bag. Not something I’ve ever needed but see the appeal

 

Of all the stupid shit I've added to my truck, the bags are by far the most useful for me. I literally use it every day. But I also like having the regular sized cup holders too...so modifying them to hold big bottles wouldn't work for me.

 

These are handy but I’m not a fan of taking up the floor space like that.

 

Yeah. I keep a minimal molle panel stash on the driver side, rubs my legs and bothers me. Keep most stuff on the passenger side and Doesn’t bother my wife.

 

Whatever. I ordered it.

 

I did the bag thing for a while too, but they were annoying and always got in the way. Plus, it was a pain for me to get my drink in and out of it. Nearly impossible to do while driving lol.

So, I did cave and order this damn thing lol

 

Nice offering, but pretty expensive for sure.

I opted to run the Swigzy Car Cup Holder Expander Adapter in the holder behind the center console for $26. Easy to reach for me and prefer my tall 40oz hydroflask back there anyhow due to its height.

Floor space? I literally don't even know it's there. And before anyone asks, I'm a 6'2" 250lb fella so no I'm not small.

To each their own though. If I didn't know about the bag and saw this cup holder first, I would have snatched it up. I hated having my stupid water bottle rolling all over the place.

 

The maker said in another thread there’s going to be a Black Friday sale.
I’m not into it. Passenger side chalk bag for me. Even with a rubber boot on the bottom of my 40oz water bottle, pulling it out for a drink is a no-look affair

 

Installed mine yesterday 100% worth it. Even the cups that would fit in the old cup holder are so much more secure because of the redesigned shape and it’s deeper. Some of my bottles and cups were always tippy because of the shape of the factory holder.

 

Dang that does look super functional

 

So.... $65 for $0.50 worth of plastic and molding? I'll pass.

 

Damn where was this 5 years ago?

 

@MESO, check it out.

 

Spoken like someone that has never owned a business or has no idea about R&D/tooling fixed costs that must be amortized over a low volume specialty item
