Pot smell is as difficult, if not impossible, to get out as cigarette smoke. It can ding a trade-in's value and destroy a dealer's loaner car.

"They appreciate it because they don’t want to rent a car that smells like smoke," Slaughter said."The smokers might grumble about it, but nobody gets irate. We only had a couple of cars where you couldn’t deny how terrible it smelled."

Seavitt has customers sign a no-smoking agreement before taking out a loaner car. He charges a $200 cleaning fee if it's returned smelling of smoke of any kind. Two months ago, the dealership had to charge someone the full fee when they returned the car stinking of weed, he said. Matick uses an"oxidation machine" inside the car for several hours to overnight to lift any odors and clean the car, Zimmermann said. But sometimes technology isn't enough.

At least half of the calls they get from dealers across the country are for help to remove the stench of cigarette, marijuana or vaping smoke.

You can even cook the ribs a day in advance, store them in the fridge, and flash them on the grill or in the oven before serving. The three-ingredient honey BBQ sauce, made with the leftover cooking liquid, is highly recommended—but any sauce of your choosing will do just fine. If cooking for a crowd, doubling the recipe is advised.
