It is also with MUCH research that I have found this out, and now I pass it on to you for free.
Light your cigar and set your climate control to put out air at the feet only. Crack the window
slightly and smoke away. It is the best you're going to get. It creates positive pressure from
bottom to top helping the burn, helping air out the smoke and keeping the overall noise and breeze
to the bare minimum.
Your welcome.

That's EXACTLY what I do, 1" crack in the window and air set to feet only, at least it draws out the smoke best that way. I have a Ford Expedition, not that it should really matter.

I love to smoke in my truck and find that it is one of my most enjoyable times. I crack or open all the way the rear window and as long as I am ashing in the Bobken as opposed to hanging it out the window I never have burn problems.

You sir may be on to something. I grabbed a Bobken out of the shop tonight and ashed in there. I had a perfect burn on a Cain Daytona on the way home tonight. As I was driving, I put my hand up to the window that I had cracked open about an inch, which is the norm for me, and it was amazing how much wind there is right around the open area. I'll test it again on the way to/from work tomorrow, looking forward to seeing the results and will let you know!

I don't smoke in the car as I shudder to think of burn holes in the leather seats as well as trying to use my lighter for touchups and lighting the cigar proper. That much dual attention to the road and to the cigar spells an accident.

Like anyone else, I do do two things at once while driving, but the only technique that I've found that seems even moderately safe is quick glances at the road alternating with giving attention to the second thing. But for me, I find that I forget to do the quick, alternating bits of attention to both things, the attention to the road suffering.

I'm with Brad on this one. Vent at the feet. No fan on at all, there is always a little air coming in thru the vent. And the Drivers Window only cracked about 1/2 an inch.
Its enough flow to keep the resting smoke going out the window but not enough to speed up the burn.
This is also enough flow to exhauset the exhale. Works great for me anyway.

I've done this many times and I can say it works MUCH MUCH better.
