Okay, I've always wanted to ask this.

What do you LISTEN to when driving your Z?

I am speaking of a particular band, a particular genre (pop, rock, et), a particular song? What?

For me, it all depends on my mood. If I want to take a leisurely drive to the Oregon coast, I'll pop in some Classical music. However, if I want to put my foot down and drive with white knuckles the whole way... I'll put in something like Static X or Rob Zombie. :eek:

What about you?

Different tunes for different vibes:

Stuck in traffic in morning: jazz/classical

Coming in late to work (no traffic/no cares): Led Zeppelin

Cruising in the sun: Zeppelin/Cream/Yardbirds

In the rain: Classical/Pink floyd/ Various acid house-electronic

Out on the town saturday night : Paul Oakenfold/other trance/electronic artists

Saturday/sunday morning hop in the country: some old school country (but only for about 5 minutes, then back to some bluesy rock)

I can honestly say I listen to everything BUT death metal and rap.

Since my Z only has the stock AM radio I would have to say L6 by Nissan. But if I had tunes it would be "kashmir" by Led Zepplin. Best played while flying down a long stretch of road at night!

Otherwise any guitar based rock from Lynard Skynard to Dream Theater Yes, I had long hair and played guitar in a band for many years in my younger days. I'll tell you what, nothing worse then swapping out a Z diff and getting your hair stuck in a creaper wheel and then ending up with gear oil in your hair. I just had a flashback!!!

Have fun!

Well, I have yet to ever really drive me Z, but for general driving, it also depends on the mood.

I drive fast 99% of the time, the other 1% my wife is with me! If it's somewhat laid back, fast driving then it's anything from AC/DC. LOUD!

If it's really spirited, fast driving, then White (Rob) Zombie, Ministry, Korn, etc. again, really loud.

And my all-time favorite driving song, "I can't Drive 55" by Sammy Hagar.

I have strange listening habits - my taste constantly changes - I find a new band I like and listen to them until I wear them out (currently Linkin Park), then I ALWAYS revert back to my staple, my baseline, my god - Frank Zappa.

I have a 12 cd-changer in my Z and I'm guessing 8 out of the 12 cd's in there are Frank :).
