Clean everything you can reach with a good general purpose cleaner. Ozone will kill the odors for good and is the best way to permanently eliminate them. However, in high concentrations, ozone is dangerous to breathe. Make certain you air the truck out well before being closed up in the cab. A lot of used car guys use ozone generators to eliminate smoke odors in cars they trade for. Disaster restoration guys use them as well. You might check with some of them in your area to see if they'll treat your truck for a reasonable fee.

I should buy extended cabs more often theres plenty of room to hide stuff

I think I would have found a radio on the first cleaning.

Just FYI for Washington, you can use it recreationally in private (your house, a friends house, etc.), you can possess it (carry it in your pocket, leave it in your glove box, etc.), and with the proper legal stuff you can run a dispensary. You CAN'T display it in public view or sell it without the proper papers and business. Last I read you can possess up to 1oz on your person, just don't show it to people on the street. I don't remember the rules for growing. Oh, you have to be 21+ too. They treat it like alcohol. They can test for it but they test for certain things so if you smoke one day and drive the next day and get tested you won't get popped for it. But if you use while driving...well.. You deserve what you get. I prefer eatables myself, less harsh on my throat. Which is odd considering I smoke cigarettes. Just in case anything I shared is considered inappropriate or promoting illegal activities by the mods just know I live in Washington so its not illegal for me and I only agree with responsible use, not abuse. Also if its inappropriate just message me and I'll stop talking about it. Just wanted to share the info, sorry for the side track Collector.

I don't drive if I partake. Only passenger. And only if we're getting food/drinks. Otherwise I just stay wherever I took it and watch movies or whatever. Plus it makes me really sleepy so 9/10 times I fall asleep within a couple hours.

To get rid of the smell, I've used a charcoal filter, like for aquariums. It soaks up odors pretty good.

Dryer sheets take out/cover the odor as well.
