Crank it up, roll the windows down, and hit the road!
At DeBoer’s Auto, we believe that nothing sets the tone for a great summer drive quite like a killer playlist. Whether you're cruising down Route 206 or just running errands, the right soundtrack turns every trip into an experience. And if you’ve ever walked into our shop, you already know—music is always playing, and everyone’s got an opinion!That’s why we’ve pulled together our team’s top picks to help you create The Ultimate Auto World Playlist. These are songs we love, genres that get us moving, and tunes that just make driving feel better. Let’s dive in!
🎸 Classic Rock Never Dies
Let’s start where it all began: classic rock. This genre is a staple in our bays and on our playlists. You can’t go wrong with:
AC/DC – For that power surge on the highway
ZZ Top – Gritty riffs that scream road trip
Scorpions – A little wind of change never hurt
Metallica – Yes, they count as classic now (we’re still adjusting to that one)
And don’t forget old-school essentials like:
“Low Rider”
“Born to Be Wild”
These are the songs that practically require you to roll the windows down.
⚡ High-Energy Favorites
Some songs are just built to energize you. Tina’s personal pick? “Apache”—a funky, high-energy beat that’ll keep your spirits up on any long haul. These tracks give your drive that extra kick, whether you're powering through errands or just blowing off steam.
🎧 Modern-Day Motor Jams
If you're in the mood for something with a modern twist, check out:
“Shut Up and Drive” – Rihanna
Other current hits from your favorite streaming stations
These tracks are perfect for drivers who like to keep things upbeat, stylish, and road-trip ready.
👩🔧 Team Sing-Alongs
Some songs just bring us together as a crew. Our team loves to jam to:
“Mustang Sally," “Hot Rod Lincoln,” “Little Deuce Coupe”
They’re more than just fun—they’re a little slice of car culture history that still hits the right note.
🤠 Country Roads & Timeless Tracks
Country music is always a solid summer go-to. One we highly recommend is “Fast Car”—originally by Tracy Chapman and recently reimagined for a new generation. It’s heartfelt, timeless, and perfect for long scenic drives.
🛑 Drive Safe, Play Smart
Whatever your vibe—rock, pop, country, or throwbacks—just remember:
Set your playlist before you put the car in drive. Safe driving starts with smart habits, and that includes staying hands-free behind the wheel.
