Great driving songs

A few here (I have suspicions) had tricked out vans w/ teardrop windows and shag carpet. Step forward so the rest of us can recognize your greatness please.

 
inspired by a post in the thread about most played albums-what are favorite driving songs that you like

I think the following will be in many people's list:

Radar Love -Golden Earring
Born To Be Wild-Steppenwolf

Also for me

Voodoo Chile-SRV version

America -either Simon and Garfunkel or Yes

Whipping Post and In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed -Allman Brothers Band

All along the watchtower-U2 version


Well, I drive a 1967, 427ci 435hp TriPower Corvette with side pipes and my go to cruising song is Mark Knopfler's The Sultan's of Swing... here he plays a Rudy Pensa Custom MKII.

 
Roll with the Changes.....REO Speedwagon
Green Grass and High Tides....Outlaws
Drivers Seat.....Sniff n Tears
Like a Rolling Stone.....Dylan
 
Two of my fraternity brothers and I were driving back from the '69 Orange Bowl after PSU beat Kansas 15-14 for an undefeated season. It was about 3:00 in the morning, somewhere in GA or SC, and they played "Touch Me" by the Doors. Tha kick off harpsichord and ending saxophone solo is haunting, in a good way. I will always remember where I was at when I hear that.

Love how both start off slow and build over the first 30-45 seconds.
 
Always loved Love Tractor by Widespread Panic. Three songs below can make me continue driving just to keep listening..

Psuro...its been three days now and I am still laughing at your retort to my post.

Anyway...how about songs to hitchhike down the road to ??
 
Any songs the kids will sing along with to keep them from fighting with each other. ;)
 
I started with this playlist back in May... since then I have added nearly 100 more to it, put the songs on a USB Drive and we listen to it a lot! The kids know nearly all the lyrics to all the songs now
