Rental car smoking

[jhedrick83]

I guess you guys are right, not worth it. Maybe I'll stop around Knoxville for lunch you busy Saturday @jhedrick83 ?

Oh man, I'm not 100% sure but I'd say most likely not available. My son is sick, we are knee deep in boxes to unpack from our move, my wife and I have to go buy new appliances and pick out new carpet and I have to clear a bunch of brush and scrub trees by Monday for a fence installer. When are you coming back through?

I'll be back through Monday, but I'll have a kid with me.

Sounds like you won't have time for any lunch but I'd bet you'll be ready for a stiff drink or two after supper

Assuming I can find the box I put the liquor in!

Sounds like an excuse to visit a new liquor store while you are out with your wife. Some wine for her and some liquor for you.

I've heard that some rental car companies are putting nicotine detectors in the vehicle. So, no vaping either! Disclaimer - I don't know for sure that they're doing this now - the chemist with whom I discussed this a year or so ago said this detector was being experimented at the time. I would get some good chaw or snus

I have to agree with most that it's not worth taking the chance. But the best odor eliminator I've used is called Ozium!

Maybe a convertible is the answer? If they smell cigar smoke in that kind of vehicle then blame the driver in front of you as you were caught in traffic and the smoke wafted into your rental. It could happen!

Now tats an idea! Trey, you need to go for the convertible!

Well if you do decide to take the risk, here's what I did the year I was commuting to Canada each week for work. Would fly in then rent a car and drive two hours to my destination. And I would smoke at least two cigars on the way each week, and never had a problem returning the car. The key is to figure out the most efficient air flow out of the car so that the smoke goes directly out the window and does not circulate inside. This assumes you are smoking only when driving on the highway at sufficient speed to create a negative air flow out the window. I had to experiment a little with each car, but generally you want to crack open just the driver's side window about an inch or so (enough to create a strong outflow and still have room to flip your ash out the window) and direct all of the air intake vents towards that window. And get some air freshener and spray liberally after you are done. Don't smoke in the car for a couple of days before you return it. And if you want to be a bit devious, after you first get the car, walk back to the office (don't let them come out) and tell them the car smells like smoke but that you are ok with it and will they just note it on your paperwork. While I've never done that, I did rent a car that smelled like smoke and I did ask them to note it on the paperwork (which they did) and I then proceeded to smoke in it as well. So I guess it might work. If you want to take the risk...
