I've got a bit of a drive from NC to IN and I'm working on a playlist for the trip, all classics from the 60's and 70's, and some from the 90's. What's everyone's favorite songs while cruising in their baby?

If I replace mine this year, you can have my old (well not really) radio.

I had plans for one for the vert and one for the truck but the rental house got in the way. We cruised all the way to Maine and back with no music so we will be OK for a little longer.

Hopefully the stereo I do eventually put in will be compatible with my in trunk 12 disc CD player as that is what we listen to.

I would think that as long as it is music that you enjoy you will be fine. Your list is looking good.
