If you're really paranoid, you can tape plastic garbage bags over the interior (with masking tape, duct tape leaves residue). I did this one year, and didn't find it to be worth the effort, as I still had to take it to the carwash for the exterior, dashboard, and such. If you're cleaning the car by ...

Videogasm drives a big ole truck out from Philly every year, a pretty easy drive out to pick up and drop off in your car. [url]http://www.videogasm.com/burningman/bigoletruck/[/url] 2) Fly...

The problem is that they won't accept anything that has traces of fuel. In reality, if you wrap them in tin foil, then put them in a plastic bag, they should be fine. It seems counter-intuitive, but you're probably better off carrying them on. That way you can explain how harmless they are if questi...
