I keep it on my hip when I am driving short hauls. For long trips I take the gun and paddle holster off and put it in the top driver door pocket. A bunch of practice draws in the driveway (with and UNLOADED gun) and I am almost as quick drawing it left handed from the door as I am right handed from my hip. If I need it out of sight I have placed it in the center console, used a soft inside the waistband holster and wedged in between the driver seat and the console, or a leather holster and stashed it under my seat.
This is part of why I am looking at putting a locking box concealed in the rear passenger side barn door. I want a secure and hidden place to stash it for those rare times I go somewhere that I can't carry it. Hope this helps.
I have been trying to come up with a way to mount a holster to the inside of the center console. But for now, on long rides I also keep mine in the upper door pocket in a fabric type holster.
