replace the carpet,headliner, and get the seats recovered...also replace the cabin filter because you know the a/c has been pumping nicotine through it for awhile.

A friend's parents did this in hs because of cigarette smoke

Make sure to replace the cabin filter or all the cleaning will be for nothing.

Just smoke about a pound of weed in there. You won't smell the cigarettes anymore nor will you care what the frick it smells like.

I saw a work truck that a guy had smoked with the window up for years in.
I never thought they'd get the smell out.
It looked like mallassas(sp) on the ceiling from tar.
I think they used Mean Green.
There was no cloth in it.Metal roof inside.So every surface was cleaned.
They got the smell out.100 %.They worked.

Damn near impossible. The smell permeates the seats, the plastic, everything.

Rent a ozone machine and put it in the truck for a couple of days. That's what hotels use to get the smo me smell out of non smoking rooms.
Do the ozone machine after changing filter and upholstery cleaning.

Why not buy it for $7,000 then trade it in for a $12,500 vehicle?

Rent a carpet cleaner with hose attachment from the grocery store. Clean the seats, carpet, headliner, etc. Let it dry for a few days.

These are some good ideas to LESSEN the smell but you will never remove it unless you replace every bit of fabric and leather in the vehicle.
Step 1: clean clean clean the truck. Over and over. Especially the headliner on the drivers side. Use vinegar solution. Then a soap solution. Then a baking soda solution. Then buy a chemical cleaner as well.
Step 2: put an absorbent in it for a few days. Charcoal, cat litter, etc.
Step 3: replace the cabin filter.
Step 4: release an odor bomb inside. The best one I found was not the Ozium you see above. The best was a product I bought at Walmart in a black can. It was only $9.99. Can't remember the name.
Step 5: keep windows open as much as possible.
Over a month or so, you can release another bomb or two. The smell will be much less potent in the end but it won't go away.
