Unhappy Coffee

Coffee spilled out of my Tim Hortons cup this morning on the way into work. I cleaned it up right away, however I just checked the OD button and it's sticky. In hind-site that was a poor decision on Fords part.

Be careful fellas it can happen to you also.

Well if you drank your coffee black like a man this wouldn't be a problem.... j/k

I had this problem before and cleared it up using some denatured alcohol and some q-tips.

As for Ford, if they didn't put the cupholders in such a convenient area we'd be complaining about that too!

That's why you need to drink your Timmy fix black.

Easy solution to this problem, drink your coffee out of a sippy cup, some even have pictures of ducks on them...

My girl friend dropped her Tim Hortons french vanillia and most of it landed in the cup holder and the base of shifter caught the rest. Thank goodness I carry those heavy duty blue paper towels with me. Oh well accidents happen.
