As long as my wife and I are in it with the top down, you could play anything and we would both still be smiling. However, I would likely throw it out when we stopped
We have to have some Willie Nelson, Patsy Cline, and Merle Haggard

A bunch of great songs mentioned already, but Running down a dream is one of my favorites when it comes to driving fast!
Many years ago, in a modified RX7, I was coming home from a ladies house on new years's day, and this song came on the radio as I was driving south on the 405, at the top of the hill and about 7 miles from west LA. Let's just say I had a slight lapse of judgement, maybe even lost touch with reality for a few minutes as I moved in and out of traffic, not realizing a CHP on a motorcycle was trying to catch me!
when the song ended, and I slowed down, the CPH caught up and made his presence know...
Let's just say I handed that one off to my Lawyer!!

Having been a Trucker, this one appeals to me. It was on the B-side of their 45 hit single "House of the Rising Sun."
