    How would one get rid of the smell of cigarette smoke out of a truck cab. I don't have the money to redo the upholstery at this moment.

    Well I assume the interior is all hard plastics and vinyl?

    I was going to recommend having it pro detailed. I fought like hell to get that smell out of an F350 I bought a few years ago. Ended up paying a shop 150 bucks and the smell was gone. If you have all factory interior I'd try fabulouso on a rag. Give the inside a good scrubbing. Let it air out and repeat.

  6. Before you go the scrubbing route, and that's probably going to be necessary, scatter a couple of boxes of Baking Soda all through the interior, let it sit for a day or two, then vacuum it all out. After the scrubbing, place a couple of those desiccant bags under the seat.
