I found a truck that I want but it stinks big time from cigarettes. It’s a possible deal killer for me as the wife and kids will be riding in it occasionally. Any ideas?
If you really want it you can teach your family to breathe through their mouths...
Seriously you make think you can get rid of it. Give a good cleaning and it's starts to smell "better". Then comes a damp,warm dreary day when it's so humid inside the vehicle it will rear it's ugly scent again...

Give it a good cleaning, put some drier sheets under the seats, and leave the windows cracked for a couple of weeks when you park it. Ive had some nasty smelling cars due to smoke (I used to smoke). After doing that, nobody could even tell

Wont ozone work? Works for practically everything else.
BINGO, WE HAVE A WINNER. GET yourself a alpine air purifier on ebay.$250.00 it has ozone and ionization, put it in the truck overnight on 3/4 and watch the smell be gone overnight. it breaks down the odor. after your done with the unit, bring it in your house and set it on 1/2 and your house will be rid of dander, fungus, all odors, pet smells, your house will never smell this good. guaranteed and you wont be able to give without it.

Take up smoking. You won't notice it after a week or two.

Also you can use one of the Ozone type air cleaners like the ones from Sharper Image or similar. My wife put one in her sisters car, cranked it on max, and a couple of hours later, no more ahstray smell.
