What say you, one of these choices or another movie?
My choiceis not on the list
Though I thoroughly enjoyed Thelma and Louise, the best road trip movie ever for me will always be Easy Rider
I also remember enjoying the "On the Road to ...." movies with Bing Crosby and Bob Hope as being thoroughly enjoyable
What is your favorite? One on the list or throw out another

2 Lane Blacktop
Kalifornia

Great drive-in movie fare, Dean.
70's version of "The Hunger Games". Lol

...and for all you lucky ladies out there, a racer will receive an additional ten points for every woman scored... and the race committee wishes to remind you all that any score is a good score!"

My wife and I enjoyed RV - I had forgotten about that one.
I may have to check this one out
"Easy Rider'' is the best.

Thanks for the feedback
My vote is with yours
I have seen the movie and thought it was okay, not great but okay
Perhaps I should watch it again
Thanks for the feedback
National Lampoon Vacation is my all-time fave. I love comedy..

It is one of my favorite movies of all time and that was a hell of a road trip in both directions in my opinion.
So hell yeah!
Good catch and addition to the list!
I agree with both of you that Easy Rider was the best.
As for RV - Robin Williams made any movie he was in a good one. Before I came here I pondered with the concept of buying an RV and travelling around North America.
I don't know which was the best movie ... but I do know which was the best roadtrip TV theme song :
Well it does have a lot going for it RIO.
Chessy script, massive amounts of gratuitous, bloody violence and staring David Carradine, at a time he still carried the sheen of Kwai Chang Caine from his "Kung Fu" days.
How could you go wrong.
A H
Well it is a only a movie
If all movies that are cheesy or have gratuitous violence were taken away there would not be a lot of recent movies left to watch.
