As a classic rock guy, I like the following "road songs":

Already Gone - Eagles (notice a pattern here?)
Roll Me Away - Bob Seger
Against the Wind - Bob Seger
Face the Promise - Bob Seger
Runnin' On Empty - Jackson Brown
Headlong - Queen
Run Like Hell - Pink Flyod
Ramblin' Man _Allman Brothers Band (also that instrumental Allman Bros. tune, it has a girl's name for the title. Great driving song, but the name escapes me).
I like different kinds of music to drive by (when I did drive). In particular I remember Footloose by Kenny Loggins for the start of roadtrips. (my "we're outta here" song!), and Mother Freedom by Bread.
Two of my favorites have been mentioned:
1) Flirting with Disaster
2) Magic Carpet Ride
and
3) A Thousand Miles From Nowhere - Dwight Yoakam
4) Promised Land - Elvis Presley
5) Dimebag - Cross Canadian Ragweed
Anything by the Beach Boys is good if you're going nowhere special. If you need something to help with going faster,I found out you can't go wrong with Radar Love.
One of my guilty pleasures was going to the middle of Wyoming when I was in college (It is EXTREMELY desolate there) and getting the car going FAST! Some of my favorite cruising songs are
1. Magic Carpet Ride- Stepphenwolf- This one just get my blood boiling at high speeds.
2. Crazy Train-OZZY- The guitar is fantastic to drive to
3. More Human than Human-White Zombie- My current cruise song, got pulled over about a year ago sppeding and this song was screaming from my stereo. Luckily I only got a warning.
4. Last in Line-Dio- The guitar in this song coupled with the vocals makes me want to drive fast.
5. Communication breakdown-Led Zep- My favorite Wyoming song to speed to.
