      When I was a kid, I remember being impressed that my dad’s Dodge Ram could fit an entire laptop in the center console, horizontally.

      In some cases it’s actually 3 drinks side by side…

      Generally the center consoles of full sized trucks and SUVs is as large as it is because people on construction sites wanted a file cabinet holder center console. So it can hold an 8.5 x 11 or A4 sized paper horizontally in the center with a holder.

      That be a truck, the center console can be flipped up to have a central seat in trucks where the shifter is on the steering column or besides the radio (dial in Ram trucks).

      Fun fact:

      It’s “a European” since the pronunciation starts with “ˌjʊ”. Similar thing with “university”.

      I’m not trying to be a dick but to spread information.

      Ok, that’s all. Thank you for reading :)
