Thats great man. I was a nonsmoker up until about two or three years ago. I actually rarely smoke cigarettes, its mostly cigars. I go through a bout two or three small cigars a day. Not exactly a good, or cheap, habit to be havin...

I just stopped smoking about a week and a half ago cause I got bored with it. But in the 18 or so months I've owned my truck no one and I mean NO ONE has ever smoked in it including myself, on long road trips that's what rest stops are for.

Start your truck up and let it warm up. Trying to force a window down when it's frozen will break something. I broke the cable on my Cheby from trying to do that. Cost me $98 plus the time to install everything which is a PIA to work inside of any door.

I would let it warm up, which i kinda do, for about a minute or two before i leave. Only because I work less than a mile from work, start work at 8a.m. and, wake up about 7:55. So that doesnt leave me much time to warm it up and thaw out the windows.... If i had that much time, I would just smoke outside of it instead of wasting the fuel for a one mile trip.

You need to wake up earlier. You'll go through a few jobs before you realize how easy it is to do and how important it is to get up on time. Much easier to casually drive to work than the need to run everyone over to get there on time. Then you'll have plenty of time to warm up yor truck and have a smoke.
Smoking=personal time...if you dont allow yourself personal time, you'll never have it. Seems like this whole entire this is revolving around your smoking habit. At that point, you need to step back and realize wtf is going on!
Not implying anything at all.....Control your habits, don't let them control you. This is just an overall statement that is true for everyone.

I worked about 1,000yards from my house for almost 2years. i was about 10-15minutes early everyday!

I have used both in channel and stick on. I have the stick on type on my Ram. The give you a little more room between the window and visor. (Better for a smoker I guess) but have a little more wind noise at highway speeds. I have the in-channel type on the Caliber.

I smoked for over 20 years. I quit Jan 16, 2008 Been almost 2 years now. I save up the money that I was spending on smokes and use it to Mod the Mustang. It was a deal I made with my wife. I would quit, and the money went to the car. Works for me.

i just quit chewing a week ago. i agree, chew is delicious whereas cigarettes are like sucking on burnt charcoal, but i'll still smoke on occasion.
