It sucks a lot of the smoke out but fills the car with suuuuuuch a nice, luxurious smell. Word of advice: Don't smoke a cigar in your car with the air conditioner on. That WILL make your car smell funky.

I am also one of the lucky few whose lovely bride is attracted to cigar smoke like a moth to a light. She really enjoys sitting out with me on the lanai enjoying the evening and taking in the smell of my stogies.

Small, funny (to me) story. December 2008, my wife went into the hospital for a rather risky surgery. As soon as the doc came out and told me the surgery was a success and she was in recovery, I went to the parking lot of the hospital, fired up 2007 Shark and turned the inside of my van into something out of a Cheech and Chong movie. 45 minutes of sheer heavenly bliss. A couple of the docs that walked by smiled in approval when I told them what I was doing. When I went into her room afterwards, she gave me a big smile and told me how good it was to see me and how good I smelled.

My God was in his heaven and all was right with the world.

The only problem I personally have ever had with too much smoke in a cigar lounge was when it got to the point visibility became restricted and my eyes started to burn.

Although I don't agree with the OP's position ( different life experiences is all ) I DO know what it is like to have clothes on that take the smell of where you've been for any period of time. 2 examples. 1: Working in a BBQ restaurant. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE BBQ but after being around it for 12 hours day after day, your clothes get nasty. I don't care HOW many times you wash em. 2: Being around fryers. That evaporating grease gets into every crack, crevice and pore of your body. You go home feeling like the Crisco Kid.

Thats nice weather here in Nebraska Bro!

I'm still sitting outside in shorts smoking.
