    I stayed in a smelly hotel for a few days last week. I had to leave my luggage in the back seat of my truck for about 18hrs and now my truck smells like smoke etc. you know, that nasty hotel room smell. I tried to spray some Odor Out stuff but it didn't work. Any suggestions?

    No problem! When I'm at work, I just take our ozone machine and stick in in my truck for about 5 minutes. Never any odor left!

    Of course, not everyone has access to one of those great machines, so FaBreeze works good too...

    I chew gum like people smoke cigarettes. I chew Orbit which has a really strong smell to it. Ive been leaving a pack of the cinamone flavor in my truck and when I come to my truck the smell in side is awesome plus u dont have those tacky fake smelling pine trees and when u want gum u always have some.

    Volcano Rocks

    Linens n things and bed, bath and beyond have these bags full of Volcano Rocks. The generally sell them as a baby item to absorb dirty diaper smell in your house. I bought 2 of them and put them under the dash where the AC sucks air to recirculate and it always give my truck a fresh smell. Every 3-4 weeks you take them out, leave them in the sun for a few hours and it "recharges" them.

    BTW I work in a bar and leave my work boots in the truck and my truck NEVER smells like smoke.

    You could also use Auto Febreze, but the just covers them smell for a lil while instead of sucking it up.

    take a sponge and soak it in your favorite cologne and put it in a zip lock bag. with a needle, poke a few small holes in it. leave it under the seat.
