I will be doing a 12+ hour drive in a couple of days, and I'd like to devote some of that time to listening to various lectures. 

I know that the mises.org database has a treasure trove of information, but I'm wondering if you guys could recommend something that you've found particularly interesting.

The History of Liberty

Some of the best lectures I have heard on Mises podcasts.

Stefan Molyneaux's stuff is always good. I really like listening to him and/or Lew Rockwell when I want to relax just because they have soothing voices. I love Block but he isn't as calming to me.

Ralph Raico's History: The Struggle for Liberty is essential listening, and Paul Cantor's Commerce and Culture is fascinating and very enjoyable (and apparently Mises.org's most popular series on iTunes U). I'd also recommend going through EconTalk's archives and picking out episodes that interest you. If you don't recognize a lot of the names, look at Mike Munger, Don Boudreaux, George Selgin, Pete Boettke and Daniel Klein.

Also very good choices

I was about to post Ralph Raico's "Struggle for Liberty" but Green beat me to it. It's really good!

I really like Rothbard's economics 101: http://mises.org/media.aspx?action=category&ID=199

Anything with Rothbard in it actually lecturing or speaking, he's a really funny guy! After listening to some of his lectures, anytime I read anything by Rothbard, I can easily imagine him reading the book aloud and making funny remarks (laughing).

Freedom has always been the only route to progress.
