Default Air Cabin Filter

For some reason, it FREAKING STINKS when i first start up the truck. So i am guessing the air cabin filter is the culprit. Anyone know where it is located at and how to change it? Can't stand the **** smell each time i start the truck up.

Our trucks don't even have cabin air filters. Crazy, I know. Even the ****ing Pontiac Aztek has a cabin air filter.

Stop pissing in your intake!

There is mold in your AC vents.....get some Lysol, set the AC on high and spray it in at the base of the windshield, then turn it off, spray a LITTLE more in there and let it sit overnight.

I guess it's the good old fashion way of getting rid of a smell. Lysol it is.. ROFL!

Leave it to Ford to forget to put a filter!
