Mark's article works unbelievably well. I have a company car I smoke in, and with the vent on (definitely set it so that its coming from the floor vent) and the driver window cracked, it seems every ounce of smoke shoots directly out the driver window. You can BARELY tell the car was smoked in with using that simple practice.

But because I am too lazy to do all the cleaning he recommends, I picked up a boxed container of the arm and hammer baking soda carpet freshener (this stuff is hardcore too, made for pets and smoking). Once every 3 weeks or so I pour maybe half a cup or so of that stuff just on the front driver and passenger side floor mats and let it sit there for an off day, or a couple hours or so if thats all the time you have. I then vacuum it out, and GONE is the smell. I have had people tell me they would never have guessed I smoke in it. I don't mean the smell is covered up... its GONE.

Long post for something simple, but it works really well and instead of the dryer sheet, this seems to eliminate the odor.
