Metallica - Turn the Page
ACDC - Highway to Hell

Highway to Hell is MANDATORY for all road-trip CDs.

I agree with the audio book idea. For a trip that long, find a good book and it'll make a long trip like that go by WAY WAY faster than listening to music you've heard before. They're hard to get into at first if you're not used to it because you have to retrain your mind to pay attention to the road while listening to and visualizing the story in your head at the same time. I definitely wouldn't start one until you're out in open country with less traffic. But once you get into it it's the next best thing to watching a movie while going down the road.

I like Bob Seger's version of Turn the Page better than Metallica.\
Golden Earring - Radar Love
Jackson Browne - Runnin' on Empty
The Doors - Roadhouse Blues
Bloodhound Gang - Bad Touch (I like listening to that song anytime :D)
