my calculator here tells me that 32 fluid ounces (US) == 0.94l. Surely you don't have cups that hold almost a litre!?



Allow me to introduce you to the wonders of the Double Gulp. It's 1.9 liters of your favorite colored sugar juice, or Slurpee

well, um... er... wow. I'm not sure how to respond to that at all.


Indeed they do. Some are designed that the top 2/3 is as wide as a 2-liter bottle and the bottom 1/3 is the standard size of a cup. Though this works in theory I've rarely met a cupholder that could, in practicality, hold this monster.

Generally the cup holders are either right up against the dashboard, shifter, or door. So the cop 2/3 wouldn't fit anyway. Cupholders in the back seat are usually in the center, unobstructed. but you can't sit 2 big gulps next to each other.
