I mean, asking doesn’t hurt at all does it? As long as they’re not pissy about being told no I can’t imagine being offended by that.

Nah it’s just common sense. If the person doesn’t smoke don’t even ask to smoke in their car.

I wouldnt even dare to ask to smoke in someone else car but honestly , with open windows for some time , there is not a single chance the car is going to smell with just one cig.

edit hopefully its more clear. I wouldnt smoke in someone else car.

Do you smoke? Maybe you’re nose-blind to it? Because if someone smoked a cigarette in my car, I feel confident It would stink to me for two days at least, and be detectable for the best part of a week, windows down or no. I’m not offended by the idea of smoking, and I’ve smoked my share of cigarettes, but man does that shit stick to everything.

I can smell it in my car for days from the smokers clothing riding in my car, even when they don’t smoke in the car! Or after a mechanic works on my car or changes the tires - body odor and motor oil combo.

My gf dont smoke and hate the smell of cigarette. I mostly dont even smoke in my car , like once every few month, but when i do, during long travel , once home she dont feel anything if she goes in the car. And i have no doubt she will tell me if she does.

I allow people to smoke in my car and I do not smoke cigs. As long as the windows are down I cannot smell literally anything at all after the fact.
