Keep the truck smelling good

What does everyone use to keep the inside of the truck smelling clean and not like a dirty sock?

I work in cow pastures and smoke (mine smells new, when I clean it), a vacuum. smoke deoderizer, and febreeze, I wipe the dashes down constantly with armorall, and keep the windows down as often as possible to hear the turbo.

NICE. I try to keep up with mine, but installing irrigation in the summer time. She gets pretty ripe

Keep up with it, use a good de-odorizer. Use Febreeze. I stay away from Armor-All, it has some negitive side effects on dashs after a while, and also collects dust like crazy.

Use Pinnacle or DP ... Much better!

I used to work at a carwash so i have a stock pile of vanilla air freshners, and i have vanilla spray too. BUT!!! during hunting season it usually smells like dirt...haha from cover scent being sprayed all over or by spilling the bottle

Thanks for the advice, I have some other stuff I use to treat the vinyl but it's all the way in the garage, armorall is easy to remember the name of (more like a generalization) but thanks guys!!!

The beer smell was the hardest for me to get out, (I was DD) I gave up and poured a bottle of febreeze where it spilled and let it air out a couple days.... I hate people sometimes!!!

armorall is bad news..we think it causes the plastic to dry out and makes it brittle

Trucks are supposed to smell like dirt.
Whenever I go hunting or out and about, I actually like to stop and put a little cow or horse sh*t IN my truck, wipe it on the mats, seats. I do stop short of the windows, SAFETY FIRST you know

Just my .02
