And now...for my next trick!
If you ever have a funky odor that lingers in your car (or truck)...place a few Bounce dryer sheets under each seat and leave the windows closed on a warm sunny day. The dryer sheets will help "absorb" the odor. It might smell a little like fabric softener for a day but will help clear up that funky smell.
We left our windows open on the camper and it smelled like smoke inside from our campfire. A few days of the dryer sheets laying around and the smoke smell is gone! |

Nice...I'll try that out. That is if the warm dry weather returns. Sick of this rain!

Haven't tried that . I sometimes use "Lemon Pledge" on the interior. After wiping everything down, I leave the cloth in the car for several hours to allow the lemon scent to settle(?) in.

I'll have to remember that next time I go camping - I HATE the campfire smell in the morning!

I read some place that the dryer sheets keep mice away also.
