Somewhere in this notion of driving are memories of tipsy girls, parties, and the sweetly interested guys and friends who clean things (and people) up.

hmm. nice additions! though I don't entirely see how the Ryan Adams song fits in.
It doesn't necessarily fit with the travel theme, but I think it fits well musically with the others--same with Tom Petty, actually.
Try out "Helicopter," by M. Ward (off of The Transfiguration of Vincent).
I have Carbon Leaf's "Learning To Fly" on the mix these are from, but since you already have them covered...
