Drinks are fine, but food of any sort is a major no-no. Even in the morning when I sometimes have no time for breakfast I will not eat in my car.

I eat and drink, but only I have a bag or something for food (and the car's parked of course). And ocassionally, let other people drink, but I do make it clear that I'd kill them if anything were to happen (even if it were by accident).

I'm very strict about food and drinks in the car. No way on coffee...just too easily to stain and difficult to remove thoroughly.

Seldom do I eat in the car. Drink yes. I look at my wife's car and it scares me. I don't want black leather looking nothing like her leather. So the cup holders holds the drinks and occasionally the iPOD.

Nothing except covered drinks in my dads lexus. The last owner made a mess with his coffee but the dealer got the sticky crap off the cup holder. No food. His cars' interiors have always been imaculate except for the floor mats.

I drink water, pop and coffee in mine, and my kids can have drinks in their special spill-proof cups plus chips, etc.

Worst for me is after tennis my friend and I usually get drinks from the 7-Eleven to drink in the car sitting in the parking lot. He always gets a beer which he pours into a paper cup, then puts his bottle on the floor so any passing cops don't see. Once in my last car he accidentally knocked it over and spilled it all on the mat, but that wasn't a Lexus

long road trips ill let anything go as you promise to let me be aware of any spillage so we can pull over and clean it up. I mean, if its a long enough trip to have either planned or something its worth planning a day of detailing after i return.

Short trips like a trip to mcdonalds or something, i take everyones food and put it under my legs till we get somewhere and then i hand their food to them outside of the truck. I hate people consuming anything in my truck because well.....the way i drive it will end up all over the interior. If you want to drink a RedBull, go ahead you just better have two for me.

All my friends know pretty much to keep their **** closed and unable to leak when im driving. And when my friends are allowed to take a sip of their drink i attempt to make them spill it on themselves because i love watching them fight to keep from spilling.

I will drink anything in my truck (except alcohol of course). Food is a rarity but sometimes before class ill eat a bagel real quick.


oh and about the LS430, lets just say my mom tries to eat a bagel while talking on the cell phone while taking a sip of coffee while attempting to figure out how to turn my CD i had playing off while adjusting her seat while well, doing any and everything a woman would do in a car....all at once! Each and every time i take it for the day or something, i have to clean it before i can drive it.
