    Every time I put my coffee cup down in the cup holder I position the spout so I can grab it blind and drink it. But it always manages to vibrate around and then i have to awkwardly spin it around to find the sippy part. Why does truck driving have to be so hard?

    lol, maybe a napkin in the bottom of the cupholder? Kinda make it unlevel so the cup handle down position is toward you? It might make for more friction too, so it doesn't spin so easy.

    At least you have a cup holder...

    I had to get one of those old school ones that hang off the window.

    Line up the sippy suck hole with the seam in the cup. This is like the old days where you put a thumb dent in your beer can lined up with the where you want to pour it in so you could keep your eyes safely on the road instead of fiddling with the beer can orientation.

    I consider it a win if I can just go the whole day without spilling the coffee on my lap.

    No, that’s just an idiot that doesn’t know how to make coffee.
