Ford has confirmed to Bronco Nation that all Leather Trimmed 4-Door Broncos will have two additional cupholders on the back of the rear seat arm rest. That is all.

Thanks for the information. Since I’m going with MGV I guess I’ll have to fashion some extra cup holders myself.

If you have a decently sturdy cup, the nets in the doors can work. What's the worst that can happen, you spill on your washout floor?

I am going with the 2door and sippy cups for all rear seat passengers. Problem solved!

I was thinking of just going back to my old ways. No food or drinks in the car ever. But sippy cups all around would work too.

Thanks, David! This is what I was hoping for. I swear, my kids take two...sometimes three different drinks with them on road trips. I need all the cupholders I can get.

Cupholders are in my decision making process. Now I have to decide if I want to pay $2100 just so my daughter doesn't regularly spill drinks in the back of my Bronco. Man, how many compromises am I willing to make before I move on to something else....still TBD right now, but, dang, a 4 door car with 2 cupholders....

Assuming your daughter is in car seats, like mine, many of them have cup holders.
There is also molle attachment cupholders, like:

I never allow drinking or eating in any of my cars, I don't care how hot she is.

In my experience cup holders double as trash receptacles. I don’t sit in the back seat so I don’t need either.

Back seat would be mostly for dogs, and they don't need cup holders. Wonder if they make fold down MOLLES dog water bowl?

No worries - The MGV will wash up nicely after your rear seat passengers spill their lattes!

Please make sure the cup holders are big enough to hold my Red Solo cups!
