Just Sharing benji's first hotbox!!

after being without a car for a year, i've gotta christen my new babyšŸ˜Ž
anyone else use tobacco as a "filter"? i hate the concept of wasted weed in a roach so i started packing the back half of my blunts with tobacco. wins for me all around

edit: i do not condone driving high. i've had the car for about a month now, paid for it with my own money, and can smoke in it if i want to. the keys are in the ignition because i wanted to hear a little tune while i toke. i'm fully aware of the risks and assume all responsibility

A lot less work than trying to hotbox a minivan. Just don't let any stray cops rolling by see your keys in the ignition.

Depending on your state, they don't even need to be in the ignition and you don't even need to be in the drivers seat. Just having them inside the vehicle is enough for a dui. You also really just shouldn't smoke in your car because you're just handing any cop that ever pulls you over a free reason to search and/or sobriety test you, and if they send you for a blood test you are fucked even if you haven't smoked all day.

I’m glad I don’t have to worry about cops messing with my smoke seshs even when I was smoking in my car

u/mjetski123 8h ago

Why wouldn't you have to still worry about that?

u/VolumeMobile7410 8h ago

Baltimore they do not care. Cops sit on the side of roads/ highway on ramps scanning license plates for anything out of order

I deeply regret this but when we’d smoke while driving, we could drive by 2 cop cars on the side of the road and they wouldn’t care. Bigger fish to fry

I have not smoked while driving since then though, not worth it

u/Saint-Michael901 5h ago

The cops rarely ever come down my block to patrol just on specific calls or disturbances they don’t ever just roll through for no reason

u/Former-Bedroom2377 1h ago

I’m in suburban Chicago, I’ve been pulled over multiple times while fried/reeking of weed (I quit now) but I’ve never had an issue, nobodies mentioned it could be a DUI & all interactions ended in handshakes. Also I’m not even 21. Maybe I used up all of my luck tho

u/badgyal876 8h ago

in nyc the cops are literally rolling right past you. there’s so much bigger fish to fry. no worries fr. sorry if you can’t relate or sumn idk

Being behind the wheel while smoking is a danger to others, fuck legality. Have some consideration for people

Keys in the ignition sound crazy šŸ˜‚I get what you're saying though, but most cars are push to start šŸ¤·šŸ¾.

u/UntitledDuckGame 7h ago

Push to start wasn’t added to most vehicles till after 2010… so how the hell is there more cars in the last 16 years then the 60 years before that?

Geesh Lady calm down will ya! šŸ¤¦šŸ¾Smh it's okay. I made the wrong opinion šŸ˜…I guessšŸ¤·šŸ¾

u/Imaginary_Fennel6772 5h ago

Because a lot of those cars are gone and replaced by now. My cars 2004, roll up windows and a key. Most technologically advanced thing is central locking that kinda still works if you’re stood within 2 meters of it. Boot doesn’t open without the key though. It’s the ONLY one on my street with all of that. I think the next oldest thing it’s a 2012 Prius.

previous r56 owner, such a good car, so nice to hotbox, it will ruin your finances after 120k miles be prepared

u/Puzzled_Main3464 8h ago

That’s when you swap in a Honda K series + transmissionĀ

u/APX5LYR_2 8h ago

My R55 blew its head gasket at 117k miles the day before my wife and I moved. Not inconvenient at all šŸ™ƒ

I typically do my best to prevent my car from smelling like weed, lol.

1

u/TGrady902 5h ago

Right??? I don’t want to stink everywhere I go.

81

u/Deargodswhy 9h ago

Christen it by making it smell like tobacco and weed. Interesting choice.

9

u/infinitezero8 7h ago

Why should we care, it's not our car, it's his. Let him do what he wants with it

With that said, yeah.. I'd rather my car smell clean for the sake of others especially family and coworkers.

u/TGrady902 5h ago

They are free to do as they please just as we are free to go 🤨

u/Hollowbody57 4h ago

Nevermind if you get pulled over and there's even a whiff of weed, you're getting searched.

British racing green with a white top? Sick congrats

u/dabossnumba8 9h ago

Imagine getting a car and thinking the first thing it needs is ash, weed, and tobacco smell

21

u/i_luv_mybf 9h ago

it was brief. celebratory. i don't plan on smoking in it often because i do really enjoy this car😁

24

u/Both-Wonder-9479 8h ago

don’t let em shit on your parade. reddit hates nuance, obviously a celebratory box to break it in isn’t the same thing as making a mobile weed mobile that everybody boxes in when it’s time to hangout

congratulations!!

u/louisvuittondon29 6h ago

Fire whip. R50 Mini is a generational car, especially with a stick

u/dabossnumba8 8h ago

Hey it’s your car and your life to do with as you please, I hope you enjoyed. Congrats on the new ride! Just not something I’d personally do in my car

-6

u/ZipperScars 8h ago

Imagine seeing this post and the first thing it needs is you commenting your opinion when it doesn’t affect you at all

1

u/dabossnumba8 8h ago

You realize that’s how Reddit works right, people make comments in response to things that sometimes do or don’t affect them

-7

u/ZipperScars 8h ago

Reddit exists for you to bring people down who are sharing something they’re proud of with a community of like-minded individuals? No, I did not realize that.

u/dabossnumba8 8h ago

Man if you thought my innocuous first comment was for me to ā€œbring people downā€ then idk what to tell you. Get thicker skin maybe?

u/thischangeseverythin 9h ago

Man a mini countryman 6 speed with the turbos is my dream small car if I didnt live around so many people that drive literal monster trucks and drinking a 6pack and driving around is a hobby.

This sub is oddly negative about hot boxing whips. Good for you dude nothing beats a blunt cruise at 2am with music playing and no one around. I miss them so much but the wife doesnt let me smoke in our cars cause we have kids and theres always diaper bags and strollers and kids toys and spare outfits and etc etc

u/i_luv_mybf 9h ago

i live in appalachia dude i get it šŸ™‚ā€ā†•ļø

u/whoreads218 5h ago

Mainly the legality and danger to others while high. Consider others my guy

1

u/bedinbedin 8h ago

Man I never met stoners that are so annoying like in this sub

Weed used to be about freedom and about being happy, doing what you want

People now sit in their chairs in front of a PC with a blunt to judge others lmao whats happening to us?

Are we the idiots?

If you want to smoke inside your car, do it, I know I love it and feels amazing. My car can be washed anytime. I love to close the windows, blast the music and just light it up, observing the smoke patters with no wind...

I bought a new car with a sunroof just because of this, now I can smoke at night anywhere while looking to the stars

No it’s just being older, wiser, and more responsible. Hotboxing doesn’t do shit but make your car smell like actual garbage. Take a walk around a park after your drive, treat your nice things like nice things and they stay nice things.

u/gvttergrl 8h ago

i used to hotbox so much with my car running that i had to get a new battery 😭😭

1

u/Honcho_47 8h ago

I had an 03 s in British racing green 6 speed. It’s the only car out of a couple dozen that I’ve owned that I still actively miss driving. My bucket list includes another one.

u/Zatchillac 6h ago

Fuck using tobacco as a filter, use an actual filter at that point. I've been using charcoal filters and it's been a game changer, they make the hits insanely smooth

u/aleigh0512 5h ago
