Equipment problem #1

This truck has an exhaust smell in the cabin that my wife and I have been noticing gets more prevalent as the vehicle gets more miles. I drove the truck about 8 hrs Thursday night March 27th and into the morning of Friday March 28th . By the time I got to my destination I had an extreme headache, nausea, burning eyes nose and throat. It was 0230 am, I tried to rest and sleep but was too ill. After approximately 9~10 hrs I went to the hospital to get checked, and document what I believe to have been exposure to exhaust fumes. The dr put me on oxygen and gave me anti nausea medicine. They drew a blood gas and told me that I had only slight signs of exposure unfortunately due to the time that I had waited to come in to get checked. I would like to know that this incident is reported as it seems to creep up and could cause an accident !.
