Why don't you use the change holders under the centre armrest?

I keep my change tray stocked at all times, so any extra I get winds up in my cup holder... it doesn't stay there long (a day or 2)... If I go on a trip and there are tolls or I need to buy a snack or something... I use it from the tray and I restock the tray when I get home... always prepared just in case massachusetts puts a toll road somewhere that didn't have one in the past... sorry... TAXachusetts... full of a bunch of MASS holes:shake:

Cupholder holds an ashtray used for change.
The other Cupholder is mostly empty. (Marauder Travel Mug when going to meets) ;)

I put my ashtray in the garage. Made a decision on day one of MM ownership that I would not smoke in the Marauder. 51 months later I am still holding to that promise. :D

No butts in the ashtray. Change only! ;)

If the ashtray was there, I'd be "tempted". Seems to work for me. :D

Gotcha' Charlie.
My daily driver has an ashtray, and I smoke in it.
However, I stopped using ashtrays a long time ago. That's what stinks a car up faster than anything.

despite having discovered the marvel that is the aux. charger port in the arm rest consul, I too still have the phone in there riding shotgun. :D

Easy to put in there and easy to take out when I need it. Usually my phone, gum and chapstick is in my cup holders or a bottle of water.
WHAT ASHTRAY??? MY CAR DOSENT HAVE ONE. IS THIS SOMETHING ELSE THAT GOT LEFT OUT OF THE 300b's?
Oh and i use the coin slots. Cup holders are ALWAYS empty in the marauder.

It is the plastic cup thingy that fits in the cup holders.
Funny I have an Ashtray but I don't have the lighter element.

The one in the console is full so I have to use the ashtray also (quarters for the car wash).:banana:

I don't have one either and in no hurry to find one. It takes up one too many cup holders.
I know a local member who had a lot of change in the driver's door grip handle pocket. When I emptied it out (to remove the door panel to fix something), I almost filled up a coffee cup.

When someone took mine outta my car they left me with a nice scratch on the door as well. So when i took it to the dealer for work they gave me one for free and its always empty.

The coin holder SUCKS....Hard to get the coins out?
Very poor design.
Get E-Z Pass in the Northeast and you don't need coins:)

Geez, My "Ashtray" is in my console, and inside it is my key for my McGuard Wheel locks and the key for the 'Tamper Proof' valve stem caps.
Coin holder is always loaded, heads-up. The last coin (or first one in) is tails up.
Yeah, I know I'm silly.....
I even made up dividers for my console interior. Gotta' keep things organized. Tire pressure gauge, pencil and pen fit nicely behind the "power port" in there, with my custom divider holding them there.

I don't think we have toll roads in Canada. We don't in Alberta.
Then again we don't have much in the way of taxes in Alberta.

We do - the 407 in Ontario is a toll road, but you don't pay at a toll booth. You either get a transponder (little device goes on your dashboard/windshield), or they take photos of your plates and send a bill in the mail (with a surcharge for not having a transponder).
I never put change in the cupholders - only the parking pass for my work building. Sometimes my cell phne ends up in there, but not for long. I keep a dollar or two in the change holders, just for emergencies...
I'm a smoker, but refuse to smoke in any of my vehicles. The smell, stained windows and a bad experience with the heater falling out of one while driving has kept me from feeling the need to. Plus, if I'm on a trip long enough to need a smoke, I probably should get out of the car and stretch my legs, anyway ;)

Only my MP3 player and phone end up in the cupholder. The change is in the coin holder or ends up laying in the console.

My cup holder is full of 2 Dollars (CDN) coins, close to the - always empty - ashtray. I cannot drink anything when driving the on the bumpy roads of Quebec. So no cup.

Hmm.
Well, my changes holders are basically for making sure I get bills back from the drive-thru window rather than 95 pennies.
I keep my real change in a set of three cans in the trunk space ... nickels, dimes and quarters for use in feeding the parking meters downtown, because I can always find a closer curb-side spot than any of the state lots when go to a meeting at the Capitol.
My blackberry finds itself in the cup-holder most often, followed in preference by the iPod. My cell phone tucks nicely into the armrest handhold on the door.

I usually have a twenty stashed away somehwere. How many times have I counted my money before leaving home only to find out I left it all on the table where I counted it? Once. But once was enough. Luckily I had enough change to get out of the parkade.

Is a parkade a parking lot/garage?:D

Usually an Underground or above ground parking lot with many levels.
