Default OK its silly but whats the deal with thiese giant cupholders!!

OK, OK I know its a silly complaint but how do I find a travel mug thats fits in these enourmous caverns they call cupholders! The little one is perfect for a bottle of water but I have been looking all over for a mug that will fit in that space without rattling all over the place! My Taco had a great racheting system that would accomodate various sizes. They should have a travel mug aceessory that fits in there or something. Anyone have one that fits they can recommend? Preferably with a handle. Thanks!!!

I actually find the small one to be perfect for my travel mug and the big ones are perfect for the big water bottles I usually use. It's like some guy at the factory knew what I'd want.

The big holders are to accomidate the soda kegs you get at drive thru grease pits. Even then they still lean when you take a turn. I find they are perfect for misc. crap that usually ended up on the floor or under the seats before with my old car. Pack of gum, cigarettes, lighters, change, sunglasses, ETC.

they hold gatorade bottles perfectly. my old roomate wants to buy one just for that simple fact (we used to get costco crates, not the little packs, once a month at our house last year with 7 dudes. would be gone within the first 2-3 weeks. beers definitely go in the doors

I'll tell you if you order the rubber inserts for the Rav4 model they are about $42.00 a set a little pricey , But thats Toyota for ya, anyway they reduce the size just right and hold all coffee cups ,soda cans,water bottles nicely.

It's a silly complaint. But it's still a complaint. Coming out of the old Tundra, at least the previous generation had like foam things on it would keep the smaller cups in place. I have a container with an ice core in it that I use to take my juice to work in and it fits pretty perfectly. But other different shaped or smaller cups are constantly moving...one of the "little" things that they overlooked when they overhauled this truck..

My Camry has a little flap that folds down to snug up the smaller bottles. Works pretty well.
