What's Your Car Pipe?

[carolinachurchwarden]

I like to have a bowl on my morning and/or afternoon commutes. Helps me relax when I'm amongst the neanderthals that was somehow able to obtain a driver's license.
My latest car pipe useage has been my MM Dagner Poker and my Carolina Gent. They hold tobacco pretty well and are nice and short. I learned that lesson the hard way when I tried to smoke my Rossi Canadian and banged it on the side glass while changing lanes. It's just so comfortable to clench, I forget about it once in a while.
So what's your car pipe?

 

[ashdigger]

I have two Dagner Poker Cobs that live in my truck, for emergency use only. I much prefer my other pipes. I have two cases that hold pipes. One holds two and the other holds six. One of them always goes out the door with me.

Usually a briar I grab as I leave the house. Were you trying to stick your head outside, through a closed window, to check the lane? I don't think in either of my vehicles I could strike the window when simply turning my head. Are you driving a "tiny" car?

Are you driving a "tiny" car?

Well, not too tiny, it's a Honda Accord, but when I used that long shank pipe and I turned my head to check the lane in a hurry, it clanked off the glass and shocked a tooth or too. I just use the shorter cobs now. Maybe once in awhile I will smoke my bents, that makes them a little shorter from my face.

Only cobs for the car or walks with the dog

I used to keep a Dunhill zulu in the glove box but now it's whatever pipe I pack for work. Usually a yachtsman or a Weaver.

 

[olkofri]

Whichever; I'm more concerned on blend selection, which is matched to a given pipe (I strive to dedicate by genre). Even my churchwardens get to be 'car pipes'.

I use a Dr. Grabow Prince. The mortise is threaded aluminum as is the tenon so I never have to worry about the stem coming loose. I also use some Falcons in th car from time to time.

 

[jaytex1969]

All my vehicles have 2 wheels, so I do not smoke on the commute. My commute is only 5 miles. so I can hold out until I get home.

 

[didimauw]

I just started keeping a Grabow straight billiard, with mismatched stem in my car for emergency.

Dagner ccbs here also. I swear they were designed for driving.
I just mentioned on another thread that I didn’t care for rubber softie bits but now I’m thinking they would be great for driving with some of my bent briar work pipes.

 

[johnbarleycorn]

I normally have 4 or 5 cobs in my truck along with an odd briar or two. Along with two or three jars of tobacco. And a tin a Samuel Gawith snuff. And assorted other goodies.

 

[trouttimes]

I smoke cobs, Falcons and DrGs in the truck. I usually have an assortment of 4 or 5 tins or pouches.

 

[onestrangeone]

Nothing specific, I load 3-4 bowls in the morning as well as a couple of pouches to get thru the work day, I have eight inexpensive Briars and a cob that are my work pipes, I’ll rotate em on a weekly basis. My work pipes take a lot of abuse. If I’m just running errands or on a trip I’ll take along something nicer.

I keep 2 Peterson full bents under 1.3 oz for solid clenching and a petite meershaum under 1.0 oz. I tote around about 6 to 8 blends too, it all fits in a shoe box for ease of transport and moving inside my car.

 

[trubka2]

MM Marcus for "emergencies" and city driving, regular pipes for longer drives. Well, and cigars in the glove compartment...

 

[jpmcwjr]

I keep 2 Peterson full bents under 1.3 oz for solid clenching and ....

Me too, along with a half pound of tobacco. But I pack a pipe as I head out the door. If it's a real trip, a half dozen pipes and several blends go with me. There's also an emergency tin and a crappy pipe (NOT a Crappy pipe) in the boot, or trunk.

 

[tschiraldi]

I smoke daily on my work commute. All my pipes are car pipes.I take 3 pipes in a case every day.

 

[mikethompson]

Pipe smoking for me is for rest and relaxation, so I don't enjoy a pipe in the car. However since I want to participate in this thread, here is something like my cars pipe:

 

[cosmicfolklore]

I just smoke whatever I am smoking... in the truck. No special pipes. This is my dashboard pipe rests.
