Default Freshening your interior

A really good way to freshen your interior is to
1. Run car with heat on. Get it nice and hot inside.
2. Spray febreeze liberally. Really wet those carpets down.
3. Leave a box of Damp-Rid, or other moisture absorber, in the car overnight
The moisture absorber soaks up any smells that might be lingering around. When you get in the next morning, it will smell nice and fresh.
