If it's really that big of a deal, and Cesar Millan doesn't float your boat, just have your vet prescribe some Acepromazine or Valium and dose her up 30-45 minutes before getting in the car. Seriously. The meds are not expensive. Cut out the unnecessary trips and just dose her lightly each way.

This actually seems like great advice I'd be comfortable with.
I think I will check with the vet about the drugs. While the daily trips are too short to really warrant sedating her, I could REALLY use some chemical assistance for the next long car trip I have to take her on. That's a great idea, thank you.
