Glad I read the whole thing. EXACTLY how I feel.

Wolf Creek Pass by C.W. McCall is gooder too. Eastbound and Down by Jerry Reed. Guitar Town by Steve Earle as well.

There is also a song I heard done by a comedian of whom I can't remember his name called "homo truck drivin' man". It is hilarious...something about a lavender Peterbuilt! I'm sure I have it saved here somewhere, but I don't want you guys getting the wrong idea! I don't have no lavender Peterbuilt!!!!

I found it. It is actually David Allen Coe, or so it says. It doesn't sound like him. I was going to post a link to it, but I think I better not. The officials around here would shoot me. After they quit laughing at it, they would ban me.

Come on!!!
I have been through 3 pages and I haven't seen the BEST Diesel song out there yet!!!

JOHNNY CASH

"I've Been Everywhere"

I was totin my pack along the long dusty Winnemucca road
When along came a semi with a high canvas covered load
If your goin' to Winnemucca, Mack with me you can ride
And so I climbed into the cab and then I setteled down inside
He asked me if I'd seen a road with so much dust and sand
And I said, "Listen! I've traveled every road in this here land!"

I've been everywhere, man
I've been everywhere, man
Crossed the deserts bare, man
I've breatherd the mountain air, man
Of travel I've had my share, man
I've been everywhere

I've been to:
Reno
Chicago

Buffalo
Toronto
Winslow
Sarasota
Wichita
Tulsa
Ottawa

I'm a Killer
I've been everywhere, man
I've been everywhere, man
Crossed the deserts bare, man
I've breatherd the mountain air, man
Of travel I've had my share, man
I've been everywhere

For Pete's Sake
I've been everywhere, man
I've been everywhere, man
Crossed the deserts bare, man
I've breatherd the mountain air, man
Of travel I've had my share, man
I've been everywhere

I've been to:

Turn the Page, Bob Segar is pretty good for driving, almost sounds like driving truck instead of touring.
One song that really gets me going for driving and roping is Radney Foster's "Texas in 1880".
There is a local rock band here in Big Spring, Crimson Soul "Shifting Gears"

This song is not really "Diesel" specific, but it is truck specific. Joe Diffies "Pickup Man". "You can set my truck on fire, and roll it down a hill, and I still wouldn't trade it for a coupe deville" That is the best line ever to describe the way I feel about my truck!
