Must-have creature comforts for your car

There are some new-car features that civilized people just shouldn't do without. Once upon a time, common-as-dirt amenities such as air conditioning and cup holders were lusted-after luxury items. Today, they are standard equipment on even the most basic, entry-level econoboxes.

This is our list of seven creature comforts for your car that today many of us would have a hard time living without.
