7 in my work van, a measly two in my car. I drink a lot of liquid, but I cant invision ever using all 7 at once.

Three tiny ones in the MINI and one large capacity dealer add on that gets in the way of the passenger seat and has scuffed up the stick shift bezel.

Three in the Plymouth Breeze IIRC. I don't use them for cups--I toss change in them, so I don't pay all that much attention.

I hate cupholders--but that statement threatens to bring up the other topic of "does food and drink really belong in one's car?"

But, now that the car serves as, among others, TV room, dining room, secretary, phone booth, brothel (though not usually in transit, like the others) and powder room, why not a soda fountain and coffee shop too? What the hell?

Next, they'll be installing kitchen fixtures including deep fat fryers.

Not a one. There are two coaster-like spots on the glove compartment door, though. Crazy '85 thunderbird.

Two... they're the perfect size for a can of soda or certain travel mugs, but they're too small for a 20 oz. bottle of soda, which is kind of annoying.
