You need to git a battery powered carbon monoxide alarm and mount it on the inside of yer vehicle. Costs less than $30 and makes a great investment towards yer safety...

Not a bad idea for a carbon monoxide detector. I only noticed the smell when I opened the windows so I bet I was not leaking much under normal conditions.

I'm actually surprised that more commuters don't have a carbon monoxide in their vehicles. It only makes sense...but what do I know. I've had one ever since I got my current truck since I travel in it a lot. More so when I started doing aero mods...

One just has to keep in mind that the detector is only good fer about 7 years though...but at least it works!

I only have a 30 min commute right now so I am not that worried. But better safe then sorry.

Still looks great! And your name and that Skywarn sticker... It's a storm spotting vehicle? I'd like to get Skywarn certified for this spring, since it seems MN is getting more and more active. Odd coincidence, our interests and cars, ain't it?
