Haha! That's not necessarily a bad thing. (Though maybe you should've made it more fun for her?)

Sometimes wish I had a man pedal in the truck, but it's not a DD, so I'm OK with it not being a manual. I have the Cobra for spirited/fun driving.

It was always a good way to cop a feel in highschool. It's just a slight movement and BAM, hand on leg action lol

I've wondered if it wouldn't be possible to modify the cup holders from a late 90's F150 or first generation Tundra to replace the ash tray but still look stock when closed. They both collapse down into a drawer like enclosure.

Yea. Those are some good ideas. Wanna stick with a bench seat cause currently the trucks fits my wife, 5 year old daughter and me. Maybe if I ever give the kid the truck I'll put just a single seat in there. No passenger seats. And I'll remove the bed completely. I'm not trying to be a grandpa too soon.

Wait a minute, your wife is in the truck=portable cup holder...
