    Then I suppose he shouldn't be driving the truck. If he has an allergic reaction, why gripe about it on a forum?

    Rolling down the windows has always been a great solution to allow the offgassing of new plastics and glues go away after some time. I actually used to work at one of the Toyota dealers in sales and constantly moving the cars gave me headaches from the horrible new car smell they had. Seriously speaking here, I am more inclined to believe that the OP really IS having issues from the new smell more than not. That being said, however, all you simply have to do is roll the windows down all the way for the first couple of nights. If you don't have a garage, then just crack the windows open. Problem solved.

    Likely, they didn't realize it was a problem until later. The OP just asked if anyone else had the problem. No need to get hurt feelings over it.

    I think that I may be having a reaction to OPs allergic reaction... is anyone else reacting? I think I'm reacting pretty hard over here!

    I'm hanging on to my dipstick for its protection from Chinese plastic.

    I think you just keep rubbing it. If you do it right, you should be able to get it off
