I'm an older person, and I am wondering if there is enough CO2 coming out of the tailpipes of my 2014 Ford Explorer. It has two. I was thinking of using 2 four inch dryer vents attached to the tailpipes with clamps, then funneling them into one dryer hose (with a connector collar and clamps) and putting that along the car and into the back window. I would block the open area in the window. I have all of the items I need already. I just need to know if I get in and fall asleep with some drugs and a 1/2 tank of gas. Will it be enough? I read that some newer cars don't produce enough CO2 anymore. How can I test this out first? With a CO2 monitor? I saw a portable indoor air quality CO2 meter that I could get and try first. Do it exactly like I was planning, but not get in. Wait for, I don't know, an hour? and see what the monitor says. What amount of CO2 would I need to show up on the monitor to know that it would work? Thanks to everyone that has thoughts, concerns or ideas on this method.

Welcome to SaSu! Sorry life has brought you here.
First, you want CO, carbon monoxide. CO2 is carbon dioxide, the stuff we breathe out. While your car does also emit CO2 and it will kill you, it is the not the nice, peaceful death everyone wants. You are aiming for CO.
Second, modern cars emit almost zero CO. There is the invention of something called the catalytic converter. It gets rid of all of the nasties in car emissions to make what comes out of your tailpipe much cleaner and far less lethal than it used to be. Do you know if your truck has a catalytic converter? If the answer is yes, this method is a no-go. EDIT: A quick google showed that a 2014 Ford Explorer does in fact have a catalytic converter. While you could potentially get enough CO, I am betting you would have to burn through most of a tank of gas and make sure your truck is perfectly sealed to not let any escape.
Finally, as for your answer about the meter, see the thread below. It answers a lot of questions around using CO as a method.
