Zombiekiller, both you and your friend should read this.same. if i'm driving somewhere that might warrant an easier access, it comes out of the holster and goes under my left thigh.
this tactic was taught to me by a friend of mine that trains officers for a living.
In short, under the leg is a BAD idea.

As far as the general topic, G Code holsters are FANTASTIC for this. Expensive, but allow mounting options and you can place/grab/move the weapon, in Condition 1, safely and effortlessly.
I have used a the velcro-backed RTI mount on the car interior, then had a M&P Shield in an RTI mount holster. Then have an RTI mount in my daily carry backpack.
So the weapon can come 'off' the vehicle and either go into my IWB holster on me, or it can go into my backpack.
I have many RTI-compatible holsters for many different pistols, as well as RTI mounts for belts, droplegs, on armor, etc.
It is a heavy initial investment but it gives TREMENDOUS safety and flexibility as handling the weapon can often be accomplished (as above) with the gun fully seated in a holster covering the trigger.
