Current experimental results suggest that some organic quasi-one-dimensional superconductors exhibit triplet pairing symmetry. Thus, we discuss several potential triplet order parameters for the superconducting state of these systems within the functional integral formulation. We compare weak spin-orbit coupling fxyz, px, py, and pz symmetries via several thermodynamic quantities. For each symmetry, we analyze the temperature dependences of the order parameter, condensation energy, specific heat, and superfluid density tensor.
