I once left a bag of shrimp for fishing in the back of my old Tahoe. And then deployed the next day for three months. Summer time in GA. It was waiting for me when I got back. I've smelled some bad stuff before, but HOLY crap that was one of the worst. I just let time run its course, and eventually the smell went away, or I got used to it, can't remember. Was about 10 years ago or so.

First time I ever bothered to get my car (a '92 Civic) professionally detailed came as a result of the birth of my second kid (2006).  We made it to the birth center 7 minutes after he was born.  We were on I-17 in Phoenix, somewhere around the Indian School Rd exit.  Not totally sure as I was going 80 or so at the time - MIL was in the back seat with SWMBO.  Took the car in to the detail shop before the smells started, probably 2 days later.  Forgot somehow to tell them what the circumstances were.

Best way to rid a vehicle of odor is to not let it get started.

Have you ever wondered why it is called I-17 when it is only in Arizona.  ;) Not much interstate travel on it.  It was a nice long parking lot on weekends though.

It's not too crowded at 11:30PM.
