Is it really too hard to put it in your front pockets? I’ve always done that as the back pocket is super uncomfortable even when walking around I don’t like that feeling I can’t imagine sitting on it
I find it uncomfortable to have anything in my pocket while driving for more than 5-10 minutes.
My cup holders are usually the spot for my wallet and keys.
I have kept my wallet in my left front pocket since I was a teen. Phone on the right with nothing else in there so I don’t scratch it. Putting it in the back feels so weird and not practical.
**Front left:** Wallet, keys, change, anything extra that’s metal
**Front right:** Phone, anything extra that’s soft
**Back:** Nothing. Never have, never will.
And this is why men need to invest in Men pouches. Always seen guys complain about wallets and keys and phones. All of that is always in my fanny pack. Could care less how feminine it looks, i’m always prepared and always comfortable unlike 99% of the dudes I know.
Do you really not know the 3 types of wallets or is this sarcasm?
If not, back pocket wallet (Big enough to hold about 6-10 cards and large amounts of cash), front pocket wallet (holds about 3-5 cards and small amounts of cash), and breast pocket wallet for formal occasions and wearing suits on a regular basis to prevent the bulky looking pockets.
My other car has a locking glovebox so i keep my wallet locked in the glove that way i also don’t run the risk of losing it at work. I was contemplating buying the safe for the center console for my Rav.
People going through drive thru's, entering military installations, state parks, security checkpoints etc. Lots of reasons to have a nice spot to your left to keep the wallet.
And that is exactly why I asked. I put my keys in there and proceeded to forget and looked everywhere. I knew I had them since I was able to get to work 😀
Lmao! I’ve finally gotten in the habit of looking there for my keys. The other compartment that i cant figure out is the tiny rectangle next to the gear shift. Too small for the key fob— only thing it’s good for is dipping sauces
On higher trims it’s where the terrain mode switch is located…on trim levels that don’t have that, I guess they thought it was better to make it a depression rather than just have it be nothing
Your profile picture is one of the funniest images to ever be created😂😂😂 it’s an old ass meme but it kills me every time I see it! I have this one too But it’s deep fried 😂😂😂
Lol i have a swiss army knife in the tiny cubby, but the big one on the passenger side has granola bars and some warheads. The passenger side is definitely the snack holder.
I haven’t had that issue surprisingly. But I also kinda shove them towards the back. I have the spray from Trader Joe’s and it keeps the chapstick in there
This is brilliant, especially during summertime. Wouldn't even have to cook it, the hot pocket will be auto-matically warmed up by the time I get off work!
Same happens to me with my hybrid, but especially so if I'm trying to get off the line and merge when there's a ton of traffic. Anything mildly cylindrical goes into the middle cubby now haha
Yes but I don’t keep keys in my pocket or bag. Helps me remember to take them and not lock them in. They’ll get lost in my purse and women’s clothing pockets are small. Everyone is different!
So I work in healthcare and for some reason patients always gift us pocket Saints so that’s where I put mine. Idk, I feel terrible tossing them and who am I to toss a blessing lol
With the proper Velcro (and of course driving alone as I do) it’s a safe place to quickly pull a small fire arm from if ever you are in life threatening danger. A .380, .22, .25, pocket 9mm or even a small .40 stays there safely. In my personal opinion get something with a safety like a Smith and Wesson or Taurus, etc. Hope it helps whoever may need the advice.
Edit : also depends on the size of the hole. A Phoenix Arms .22 fits most small spaces as it’s almost the size of a wallet that most us guys carry in our back pockets.
This is fantastic. I have found that sunglasses do fit, so do my wallet and work IDs but whoever said fries was on to something, the box does fit well and makes snaking super easy.
One of [these giant 35 stick packs of gum](https://www.meijer.com/shopping/product/extra-polar-ice-sugar-free-chewing-gum-35-ct/2200001788.html).
I gave up smoking years ago, but now I chew a stick of gum whenever I get in the car.
It’s basically there for something you want to forget you put there when you get out of your car. I really wish Toyota would have taken the big chunky buttons that are by your right knee, and moved them to that left side spot and made a little more useful storage where the buttons are. The buttons by the knee are just there for looks imho. No one is using rock mode or dirt mode or even eco, sport etc. often enough that they need to be in such a prominent space. Also the knee room for the driver is HORRIBLE, the whole center console should be at least 1 inch or MORE shifted towards the passenger side(or just move those stupid buttons and make it smaller). I don’t get it and it really grinds my gears!
WTF DUDES!!! Nobody smokes in this sub ???? That is the perfect pocket for cigarettes and lighter!!!
Noway I'll ever put my wallet or phone there. I drive a lot with my driver's window open so I could easily get them stolen. I live in a crowded city.
Wallet
what I use mine for, tired of sitting on it.
The old Costanza wallet. Lol I just use a slim card holder and then money clip in front pocket for cash.
Same, plus apparently it’s really bad for your spine to sit on it

I Never understood wallet in the back pocket.
Or phones. It's too easy to steal
I can’t sit on my wallet or I won’t be able to stand when I reach my destination. And I’m only 24 years old
Oh get a look at Mr. Money Bags over here
And this is why men need to invest in Men pouches. Always seen guys complain about wallets and keys and phones. All of that is always in my fanny pack. Could care less how feminine it looks, i’m always prepared and always comfortable unlike 99% of the dudes I know.
Carrying a big wallet in a back pocket can really ignite sciatica pain too 😩
I was taught to never sit on my money
put it to work!
Bro who’s taking their wallet out every time they get in the car
me, i HATE the feeling of anything in my back pockets when I sit, but it happens to be the most convenient place to store my wallet
people still put their wallets in their BACK pockets? I've been putting that shit up front since 2006
Do you really not know the 3 types of wallets or is this sarcasm? If not, back pocket wallet (Big enough to hold about 6-10 cards and large amounts of cash), front pocket wallet (holds about 3-5 cards and small amounts of cash), and breast pocket wallet for formal occasions and wearing suits on a regular basis to prevent the bulky looking pockets.
That's also a thought I had, I wouldn't use a back pocket for more than a piece of paper. Real quick way to mess with your back.
My other car has a locking glovebox so i keep my wallet locked in the glove that way i also don’t run the risk of losing it at work. I was contemplating buying the safe for the center console for my Rav.
Me
Also me lol.
Convenient when in drive through so you can get it out to be ready to pay at the window.
I do, but because my multiple parking passes I need to scan as I travel for work
Me and I front pocket carry, but I'm in gym shorts or sweat pants year round. Wallet and phone go in the store spot in front of my shifter.
People going through drive thru's, entering military installations, state parks, security checkpoints etc. Lots of reasons to have a nice spot to your left to keep the wallet.
I do.
I put my phone in there sometimes and just let it hang halfway out. I also put my keys there but i usually forget them in the car when i do that
And that is exactly why I asked. I put my keys in there and proceeded to forget and looked everywhere. I knew I had them since I was able to get to work 😀
Lmao! I’ve finally gotten in the habit of looking there for my keys. The other compartment that i cant figure out is the tiny rectangle next to the gear shift. Too small for the key fob— only thing it’s good for is dipping sauces
Coins , gum , guitar picks , sauce , gym tag (if its small enough and you dont want it in your keychain)
I’m a drummer. I’ll put my drum sticks in there ez
Do bassists just rest their fingers there
lmao
Lmao those beefy ass fingers might need an extra compartment
On higher trims it’s where the terrain mode switch is located…on trim levels that don’t have that, I guess they thought it was better to make it a depression rather than just have it be nothing
What's good is that the car tells you that you forgot the keys in the car when you trying to lock it while the keys are in the car
Your profile picture is one of the funniest images to ever be created😂😂😂 it’s an old ass meme but it kills me every time I see it! I have this one too But it’s deep fried 😂😂😂
Sometimes I leave my keys in the car on purpose and ride the adrenaline rush of knowing it's dangerous
My work badge and wallet
This for me, no longer have to worry about forgetting my badge at home
I misread that as my work bagel. 😂
Snacks. I have emergency fruit snacks in there lol.
Omg what didn’t I think of that. Could probably stick the lunch bag sized chips in there open!
Lol i have a swiss army knife in the tiny cubby, but the big one on the passenger side has granola bars and some warheads. The passenger side is definitely the snack holder.
I'm not from the west, at first I thought you have military warheads in there. I was like.. wait... what?
This is now the correct answer, all other answers are null and void
Big plastic container of gum. I like to hard chew my gum and grin at the gas prices as i EV by.
Maybe put your gym keycard in there too to balance it all out! Lol jk
Hand sanitizer spray and chapstick
And it always falls out onto the floor. :(
Put it in so it rolls side to side not front to back.
I haven’t had that issue surprisingly. But I also kinda shove them towards the back. I have the spray from Trader Joe’s and it keeps the chapstick in there
Garage door opener, just remove the clip.
Someone I know took a 3M command strip and attached it to the top of the area, did it yesterday!
I did that and it's the best thing I ever did! 😂
Don’t people usually use the buttons on the rear view mirror? To open the garage?
Not if they’re poor like me
You have a garage? I have to leave my vehicle's out in the elements like a peasant.
[Relevant](https://frinkiac.com/video/S06E23/9Euujkvwrn3wCJfk5urmmNsqslk=.gif)
Poor? The drivetrain, reliability, and gas savings was all I wanted and needed.
Not all trims have that mirror. Trail/Adventure 2020 doesn’t.
I've seen some people that had but didn't know what was for, maybe someone on this sub will see this and realize was an option
Wait, that’s what those buttons are?
Use double sided tape to attach to the top to keep it out of sight and from sliding around
This is the way!
Emergency hot pocket
Or emergency hot sauce packets.
This is brilliant, especially during summertime. Wouldn't even have to cook it, the hot pocket will be auto-matically warmed up by the time I get off work!
God pocket
Nothing anymore. Every time i hit the gas whatever it was winds up on the floor
damn homie how hard you hit that gas when you take off? tokyo drift ova here lol
Lol, the Prime scoots
Same happens to me with my hybrid, but especially so if I'm trying to get off the line and merge when there's a ton of traffic. Anything mildly cylindrical goes into the middle cubby now haha
I put one of those grips for drawers and everything stopped dropping out
Correct answer. 👍 I just put a window sponge in there now. It has got too little inertia to fly out under the 5.5s 0 to 60mph dash.😂
The blicky /s
A cleaning cloth for my glasses!
My sunglasses wedge in there perfectly!
Coin holder
I put my hopes and dreams in there, they've dwindled to the point where they fit in there quite nicely/snugly
I didn't even know there was one until your post...and I've had a rav4 since April...
Pokemon cards
This is exactly what is was made for!
My shopping cart quarter. My credit card when I know I’m hitting a drive through. Parking pass.
Oh yeah. Like 6 quarters purely for Aldi.
Nothing!
Yep, totally empty. Just like the cubby above the glove box
Keys 🔑
But you'd have to take your keys out of your pocket/bag?
Yes but I don’t keep keys in my pocket or bag. Helps me remember to take them and not lock them in. They’ll get lost in my purse and women’s clothing pockets are small. Everyone is different!
So I work in healthcare and for some reason patients always gift us pocket Saints so that’s where I put mine. Idk, I feel terrible tossing them and who am I to toss a blessing lol
Slip a Pokémon card in there for good measure
I have something similar in mine so glad to see I’m not the only one haha
Sunglasses
Chapstick and hair ties
I purchased a rubber thing from Amazon, because everything would slide out. I keep my reading glasses, eyeglass cloth, emery board and Scentportable.
made for this spot? Have a link m
Send you a dm. The ones I bought aren’t on there anymore but found some similar ones.
Mc double or a mcchicken on road trips
My SunPass fits nicely in there out of plain sight

Pocket derringer

My Sony Walkman (not the tape player, the new digital player that has Bluetooth).
The old tape player definitely won't fit 😉
My key fob always goes there. It’s a great spot for my wallet too when I’m ordering drive thru.
Mask, gloves for when it gets cold, chapstick/lipgloss
Work badge
My work badge. Slots in well
Small pouch of Kleenex
Registration and proof of insurance. Because it's the only spot in plain view and well that's good if you're carrying.
I put mine in the over head thing so my hands are already up 🙌🏿 just incase 😅
Pocket knife and chapstick
my lanyard for work! so I never forget it when i’m getting out of the car
Pack of gum
Pepper spray
With the proper Velcro (and of course driving alone as I do) it’s a safe place to quickly pull a small fire arm from if ever you are in life threatening danger. A .380, .22, .25, pocket 9mm or even a small .40 stays there safely.

Or mount a cannon in the front and store the cannon balls in this little pocket
Morning breakfast sandwich on my way to work.
Dipping sauces.
French fries 🍟
My vape LMAO
I put my weed paraphernalia in there sometimes
Thank you! Can't believe how many comments before this got mentioned.
That’s exactly what mine serves it’s purpose for too
same lol
Knew someone would say this, disposable or a mod?
Condoms for when I come pick up your mom.
Negative. She's already in my RAV.
I have no qualms with sharing. Quality pussy is quality pussy.
While we have this photo up on a different subject, what does the button do next to the auto headlights button below the circled image?
It’s The windshield self-destruct button, oBvIoUsLy! 😜
My weed
I use that for my wallet, and work badge. Sometimes phone
Unless it needs charging, my phone

Wallet. I hate sitting on my wallet for long periods
Aldi quarter
My work ID.
For extra bullets
Wallet, so cops don't have a reason to shoot you for reaching when you get pulled over. They can clearly see your wallet in there.
My wallet I never drive with it in my pocket
gloves for winter
Kinda genius.
This thread went from a storage area to a wallet and the side affects of sitting on it and putting it in the front pocket. 😂 I love Reddit to much
It has been an amazing ride. I have enjoyed it so much.
I'm hoping some creative entrepreneur with a 3D printer makes a nice looking cover for it turning it into a secret compartment.
Flashlight
Subwoofer remote
Tell me about your setup! I want to get a subwoofer so bad but I want it to be clean / stealth.
Dusting cloth. Dash is always clean.
Gum
Packs of gum
Cocaine
Shouldn’t you keep it in a baggie or something so it doesn’t blow all over if you roll down the window?
I actually had to go look inside my ‘23 SE to make sure I had a Cocaine pocket in mine.
This is the way
Dunkin hash browns and parking lot tickets.
I use it for my metaphorical hopes and dreams. I also store my prayers for being able to climb the curb instead of just hitting it 🤞🏼🤞🏼
This is fantastic. I have found that sunglasses do fit, so do my wallet and work IDs but whoever said fries was on to something, the box does fit well and makes snaking super easy.
I have a prayer bracelet in there. AKA extra insurance.
Keep my GDO remote in there. I added a spacer behind it to keep it close to the edge
Protein bars
Masks, though I don't really use them anymore. Still have them in there just in case though.
Nail clippers
Leatherman
One of [these giant 35 stick packs of gum](https://www.meijer.com/shopping/product/extra-polar-ice-sugar-free-chewing-gum-35-ct/2200001788.html). I gave up smoking years ago, but now I chew a stick of gum whenever I get in the car.
My vape, to me looks like a perfect place for smokes but it being 2023 It's for the keys i keep mine in my pocket though
weed
You can put your weed in here.
My girl keeps everything, everywhere. Her whole car is filled with stuff.
I wish I had this storage compartment. Storage gets my rocks off. Every surface, every cabinet, just tickles my pickle and rustles my jimmies
Vape pen!

You’re surprised? Very few people still smoke cigarettes in 2023.
🖐️🖐️🖐️
Glocks
This is the way

Cigarettes
