Most of my growing up days women would carry huge purses, especially to places like the Golden Corral, they must not do that anymore.

It comes in a two-pack, so nobody will feel left out. Make sure you fill it with kinds toys to entertain your passengers!

An old useless throwback from early navigation, before the digital age.
Like having a 4 track tape player laying around, Still useless!

Owning a BEV with all the tech and it having a map pocket, is just crazy!!!

Next you'll be saying with heated steering wheel, we no longer need a glovebox...

Agreed, now the 8 track, that’s another thing.

(My dad still had his 8 track deck and tapes until last April when my parents downsized and moved…)

I store my windshield sunshade in the map pocket. When it is folded up it fits perfectly. Easy to reach back to grab it or put it away.

What is the brand/model of the sunshade you use? I'd like to replace the rollup I use.

I got the El-cheapo base model LT. No pocket for me.

I have to carry my plastic straws in the big open area under the shift controls.

I’ve got barf bags in mine. My daughter gets carsick very easily.

Oh man. I remember those days. We used to keep a box of gallon ziplock bags under the passenger seat in the minivan for that reason. It was a great moment when we realized we didn’t need them anymore. Hold strong. It will happen someday.

I bought these for my 2020 Bolt and they work fine for my 2022 Bolt EUV. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000G72UOQ

There are probably better ones, but these were already paid for and they block the entire windshield. Paired with the ceramic tint I am always impressed by how not scorching it is in the car.

No! Soon you won't have a steering wheel, so no use for gloves either
I think the glove box will be deleted and moved to another location, as it
too will be aged out as a defunct item. Kinda like us

 

[jefro]

I'll have to see if I have this.

8 tracks? Wow! Thats 4 times stereo.

"I am iron man. du du dududu."

You do know the factory glass is made with a UV blocker, right ?

Yep. But it doesn’t block IR which is where the heat comes from.

Yeah! The ceramic tint is great stuff, IMO!

I had a 4 track track in my 69 SS Nova That's why I said that in my original post.
It became useless when the 8 tracks came out. We put an 8 track in the 68 Road Runner and one in the 69 GTX!

 

[jefro]

I guess some tint could block some stuff. I've not read any tests on how much it might block.

Can’t get away with that everywhere. I have a friend who gets pulled over all the time for her tint. They always let he go after she hands them her driver’s license and her badge.

Behind passenger's seat, there's a pocket for the rear passenger.

Driver's seat has none.

Can't be saving GM thaaat much money.

I read once that the material costs for building a given model car are figured down to the fraction of a cent. That would certainly account for a pocket on just one seat, and for the mind numbing decision regarding the brake and turn signal lights starting on the 2022 models.

 

[FlashBoltEUV]

I actually use the map pocket in my EUV to hold maps. I have a big Rand McNally road atlas for the US and Canada and various other county maps. I didn't spring for the navigation system, so it comes in handy when I visit relatives in the ass end of nowhere and my cheapo MVNO cell service doesn't work for Android Auto.

 

[fsu23phd]

I use both of them on my prius. Sunscreen, plastic bags, kids sunglasses, wires for kids devices. I perfer 2. But it's minor.

I'm noticing not all cars that I am shopping for now have the 2nd pocket or even a sunglasses holder. Annoying
