Just buy a dedicated 5A supply like this -

I can see why you'd want the cig adapter as it gives you a USB option right away. Those things tend to be way under-powered tho. What I did is bought the supply I linked, and I use it to power both a powered USB hub and my pi.
For the pi, I soldered a female usb plug like this to power my pi via USB -

Since it's only supplying power you only need to solder the 2 outer USB pins (+5V and GND). With this you'll be sure to have plenty of power on tap to charge your phone AND use AA at the same time w/o problems.
The best thing is to power all your devices w/ a USB hub. This also allows you to make your USB ports more accessible. Mine sits in my glovebox.
