smoking in a car is a terrible thing

when i was looking for a GS i came across a beautiful 01 gs430 that looked great from the outside, but when i looked inside... the ashtrays were stuffed full and filthy, there was ash everywhere, and there was burns in the headliner and leather surfaces. and then there was that smell. ... just ruined

Smoking should be banned everywhere - especially cars! I saw a youngish woman smoking in her car the other day with about a 2-year-old strapped in the backseat, sickening.

Anyone can smoke in my car as long as they give me one

Yep, pretty disgusting all right. I see the same thing occasionally too. Like shouldn't that be considered inhumane and illegal to forceably strap a child into a very small space like the back seat of a vehicle where they can't escape and then make them breathe in toxic fumes?
I do think that people who smoke are in general, finding the lifestyle increasingly hard to manage. For instance, I was sitting in my car in a store parking lot waiting for a friend who was inside. This other car pulled up and parked close by and one of the two occupants lit up a cigarette as soon as he got out of the car (obviously not allowed to smoke IN the car) and took as many puffs off it as he could before having to put it out before going inside the store. The same two guys came out of the store 5 minutes later, and again the smoker lit up right away and sucked back as much tar and nicotine as he could on the way to the car, and then had to put it out again before he got in and they drove off........I just shook my head and chuckled to myself.

For my entire life I had very strong feelings towards smokers as I felt they would be better served to just go jump off a bridge and save themselves and their families the grief of going through the complications smokers endure later in life. Until......I went to a stop smoking class with someone and the one thing I learned out of all of this is that these are still people and really want to stop smoking (for those in the class) but the addiction is stronger then drugs. I do wish them the best as society is turning up its nose to smokers from coast to coast and seemingly rendering smokers to a lower class plus the obvious health benefits.
That said, never will someone smoke in my car and they all know it.

I agree that smokers are people too.....some of whom are totally ambivolent?......inconsiderate?.......Oblivious?...or to be more polite simply unaware of their addiction's affect on those around them. There is someone in our office building who WILL NOT go outside to smoke, even on beautiful days, but instead goes into the common washroom, locks the door, and lights up. And then leaves the washroom with the window closed so the next poor shmuck gets to gag on his smoke. THAT is the type of person I have very little (if any) tolerance for......be they considered as victims of their own addiction or not.

I don't smoke but my huband does. When he drives my car - as rare as that is - I am sure he smokes in it. After all, it is his car too.

2nd LS. I smoke about a pack a day, (sometimes less), I have never had a smoke in any of my Lexus cars. My old chevys, fords, Hondas, I smoked in, never in a Lexus.

Just my 0.02

Wow....you must really LOVE cigars to have a quote about them right in your signature! I really can't imagine what the overwhelming attraction could be to inhaling smoke. If you think about it, it's a pretty ridiculous thing to do. But then, spending thousands of dollars on a luxury vehicle like a Lexus when one could buy a beater for $100 that would probably get from "a" to "b" just as fast might seem ridiculous in the eyes of some ppl too. I guess it's all relative, isn't it

No smoking in my car, but every once in a while I may allow it.

I'm trying to quit right now. Today is the 3rd nicotine free day so far... wish me luck ! I've made it to the 3rd day a couple times and then failed then. I really need to not have anything for 2-3 weeks and then hopefully the cravings will stop. I've been smoking for a couple months. I'm not terribly addicted. 4-5 a day max, usually about 3, but sometimes if I didn't smoke all day I would get very cranky..

I've also started running again to provide motivation to quit smoking. Running definitely helps.. After a hard workout, you're so sore, and your lungs are so sore, and you feel like you're getting healthy again.. you don't want to fill your lungs with smoke..

I never smoked in the Lex. I would always park and stand outside my car and smoke. Never while driving.

Stick to it. Nobody can/will stop this nasty and disgusting habit unless they really want to quit and it seems you do. I completed a stop smoking course not too long ago-not for me-and I learned a bit about this habit that gave me some insight as to why people get addicted. The tobacco industry should be treated the same as drug cartels.
Stick to the program and you will persevere.

I smoke in my GS but only when I'm in the car for a long period of time, like traffic quick trips to LA/Irvine for business. Other then that my friends smoke in the car but only at low speeds, like city streets etc (they smoke way more then I do) I don't mind them smoking I just tell them you burn my ***** you pay for the new part
