    I HAVE to use those. Otherwise no drinks for me! Having a stick makes holding beverages and driving less safe.

    I used that for my coffee mug when I still had the square 95-00 cup holders up front.

    No spills and just as easy to reach.

    it was a few days ago but i bought a ARE Topper with a locking door for only 250 bucks. it is silver and my truck is black but for the price i couldnt pass it up. It dosnt have any rail mounts on it but i plan on getting some. i read a post describing how to install your own. all in all i love the topper. only bad thing is that it not fit my road bike and my wifes mountain bike in it at the same time and be able to shut the back. other than that, i have no compaints. ill post a pic when i get to my computer.

    I looked into them, but decided it wasn't worth it at the time. If I ever upgrade to the version III D2S I might upgrade to all of their best stuff.
