Favorite auto or driving related songs

Haven’t seen any threads on this but thought it would be interesting to share some of the people’s favorite songs that have some connection to autos or driving, preferrably not obvious ones like I’m In Love With My Car by Queen, I Can’t Drive 55 by 2nd best Van Halen vocalist or anything by The Cars.

I’ll start off with 2 of my favorites:

*** Bad Habit by Offspring
If you are not familiar with this gem, do yourself a favor and listen to it. A funny spin on road rage if there can be such a thing. One of my favorites.

*** Rearviewmirror by Pearl Jam
Not really about autos, using rearviewmirror as more of a metaphor. Had to mention it though, one of the best PJ tracks imho.

*** Interstate Love Song by Stone Temple Pilots
*** I Am The Highway by Audioslave
I know I said two songs but I figured I’d throw these in here too because song titles?

You can take me out of Jersey, but my love for Bruce will never subside.

His cover of “Blinded by the Light” is my favorite exit on the Parkway

He wrote and recorded it. Everyone else covered it.

I prefer the Atlantic City Expressway myself, but some also say I have a gambling problem :joy:

Alan Jackson, Drive. “a little slower son; you’re doing just fine”. Reminds me of my dad teaching me to drive stick in his 90 Acura legend.

But seriously…
