If you smoke in my car I might slow down as I kick your ass out of my car. No eating either but I'll slow down for that offense. I have a sport bottle in my car with water. The kind you squeeze so I do not have to unscrew the top to drink.

No eating, no exceptions!

You can drink, as long as it's in a bottle with a resealable cap.

I smoke, but rarely in the car. Still trying to quit.

If you're female, clothing is optional!

It took me a while to quit also. I regret smoking. Ever smoke I ever had.

I don't smoke, nor do I allow smoking in any my cars. Out of my very large family, I think my dad is the only one that smokes, so needless to say, he does NOT ride in my cars. None of my close friends smoke, but I still do not let many of them ride in my MB. The MB is a me only car I guess. I do not want anyone trashing it up.

I will eat and drink in any of my cars, except the Mercedes and its probably because it does not have cup holders.

ANY soda has to have a screw-on top...the ONE and only time I didn't follow my own rule...I stopped at a MickeyD's and got a SMALL orange drink...set it on the floor on the passenger side...and the SOBin' cup falls over and dribbles about half its contents onto the floormat before I reach over for the next swig...I'm fickin' parked and the dang thing falls over!!!!

Boy, I didn't know how fast I could go from hungry to flat-out stupid mental over a 99¢ drink laying on its side. I don't think my burger has landed yet! Thank You GOD no one was within earshot of me as I cleaned that crap up...

BTW, no smokin' and the eating part disappeared with the burger...soda, water - NO ALCOHOL - with screw-on caps only...if the cap is off and you're talking, you loose the drink...I've yet to meet anyone that can drink and talk at the same time so it goes to fact that you're not respecting my rule and my ride...so "...no drinky for you!"

Guilty of drinking water and Red Bull during long trips. Also the occasional cigar if I start getting road weary nothing like Red Bull and nicotine to wake your @ss up! No eating except the occasional chocolate bar.

Cigars are always kept outside the window while lit

I just got back from a 500 mile road trip this afternoon and ate, drank, and smoked cigars! I used to never smoke in my cars but was driving down the 405 one day and a brand new Bently 4 door tank comes rolling past and the guy driving is smoking a stogie. I think "if he smokes cigars in a car that costs as much as my condo I can smoke in my Explorer". I got rid of the Explorer and the Benz is my daily driver which I also use for hunting and fishing, so yes, I smoke in it. I clean it at least once a week and it's always presentable though.

It makes it so much easier to clean the interior of my car when nobody eats or drinks in it. Occasionally, I do bring along a water bottle. At least it can't do any damage if it spills. Woe be it to the poor soul that leaks a droplet near the shift gate of a 722.6x, though!

Also, if I ever caught anybody lighting up in my car....Yeah man, I'd likely speed up, pop open the passenger side door via a hidden remote and pitch them out the door via a lateral ejection switch (special custom-fabricated apparatus). This would result in a subsequent hanging while their bodies dangled about helplessly being bloodied along the tarmac while traveling at over one hundred ft per sec.
This is assuming they wear their belts...Otherwise they'd simply get their brains squashed.

Anybody wanna ride?

The other day I was cruisin on the highway smokin a camel, and I dropped it and it went under the seat where I couldn't get it. I pulled over as fast as I could to try and get it, but it was impossible. What did I do? I opened my water and poured it on the carpet! What could I do? Its still there too. My car is not nice so I suppose there's no reason to be anal about it. Now, when I do buy a newer nicer car, and I am saving for one, I probably will keep smoking and eating to a minimum.

In my car:

Dirty shoes: Banned
Food: Banned except on trips
Drink: Banned except on trips (and resealable containers only)
Smoke: Ultra Banned - I'll kick you out and try to run you down with the car...


My wife is pretty much the same way about her 300E. She's probably a bit more food lenient.
