Ash can

How many of you got the ash can instead of the ashtray in your Ranger? I was a little surprized, but not dissapointed (I don't smoke) that they wouldn't include an ashtray in the truck. Even more surprized when I took the ash can out of the glovebox, and saw that it was supposed to take a slot in the cupholder.

Just kind of wondering how common that is, and what people use them for - personally I use mine to dispose of bad primers, it makes a great portable small explosives disposal unit

It's also a great loose change holder!

Mne came with an ash can and an ash tray. I also don't smoke so I use the ash tray as a coin holder and the ash can was thrown out they day I got the truck.

Thumbs down For $15 what the heck

Well I splurged and paid the extra $15.
That got me an ash can and a cigar lighter in the dash.
Keep change in the ash can because my truck has no coin holder.
Pretty certain ash can versus ash tray is due to different consoles and tranmission choices.
My truck has buckets and a console up to the dash. The sub woofer is mounted in the console and sounds GREAT. Since the ash tray would have gone where the console links to the dash the smokers package gave me the can instead of a tray.
Don't smoke anyway but wanted the second power point in the dash where the lighter goes.

Where can I buy an ashcan?

The ashcan is the only thing I have to throw away stuff, and the hinges broke ...so does anyone know where I can get a new one? If all else fails reckon I could go to the dealership.
