Has anyone heard of having exhaust smells in the vehicle while driving?

I have a 3.5 hour commute once per week and drive approximately 75-90 mph steady for a couple of hours. There is a strong exhaust/oil smell in the car. No air-recirc, no A/c, just vented or heated air.

This is not a leaking heater core (in other words, not a coolant smell).

Also, looks like the oil dipstick is low end of ok?

Started smell at 1400 miles on vehicle. Now have 1800.

Well, the cars run very rich, so that may be what you're smelling. But, I'd have your dealer check it just in case.
