    I don't smoke. I do eat burgers/fries/chicken nuggets while driving and make my wife hold up my medium drink while I take a sip.

    I only do this though when driving on the interstate and the car is on cruise control.

    Because not working the pedals really frees up your hands, huh?

    I had to think about that for a moment because not working the pedals frees up my feet. But, I get your drift. You'll have to excuse me because I am an analytical person. Drives my wife nuts sometimes.

    But yes, having the car on cruise control allows me more concentration on eating that burger. The drink? My wife still holds it up, regardless. He he.

    I rarely see people smoke anymore while driving, except for Joe Redneck Sixpack driving his oversized RAM pickup.

    NOPE. We have kids along when we travel. Even relatives and friends who smoke never did it inside the car. The smell lingers.

    Yeah. I'm surprised how few people have mentioned the smell. It really does hurt the resale value of a car if you smoke inside it.

    As for the holding of cups, I can totally relate to that. People who ride shotgun with me a lot already know the drill: If there's a drink, they hold it. The M doesn't have built in cupholders, so a passenger will have to suffice.

    Normal driving hindi, if I floor it, my car smokes especially at night mas kita hehe - deterrent ito somewhat sa mga tailgaters... but not always.

    Me, I don't smoke. I will never allow somebody to smoke in my car either, if he insists, baba siya't iwanan ko siya.

    ^^dapat lang.nakikisabay na nga lang e ganun pa gagawin.
    well, kung smell sa loob ng kotse ang problema, closed windows lang palagi and aircon para di matemp mag yosi. tsaka, pag open windows naman e di lang usok ng yosi ang usok sa hangin ng metro manila

    i usually disable the "re-circulate" option and turn off the aircon so the smell doesnt stick inside the car.

    as for ionizers, i've heard that it's bad for your health, and i also had an experience where an ionizer just sort of blew up out of the blue

    I don't smoke

    If anyone tries to smoke in my car, I flip a switch and you get ejected 100 feet into the atmosphere .
