You can transport a firearm in a vehicle in all states - the only variance is HOW it must be transported. If you keep it unlocked and out of reach with the ammo stored separately, you'll be in compliance with all state laws on this.

Can you drive with your gun?
It depends on what you mean. If you mean, can you have a gun in your car, the answer is, it depends. Some states, such as Mississippi, allow a person to carry a gun in the car even if the person doesn't have a permit, because the car is considered an extension of your home. Other states, such as Tennessee, allow car carry only if you have a valid handgun carry permit. Federal law allows you to transport an unloaded firearm in your car while travelling if the gun is unloaded and not accessible to you, so even if you don't have a permit, you can transport a firearm from one place to another, even if you don't have a permit, as long as you can legally possess the gun.

The majority of states prohibit driving with a loaded handgun unless the person possessing the gun has a carry permit. Some states do allow keeping a handgun loaded in the car but require that it be locked away. Texas is interesting - loaded guns must be out of sight. Other states, like Maryland, are incredibly anti-gun and take their laws seriously. In California, if you carry a loaded gun or part of a gun (e.g. a loaded clip) in the car and it is not in a locked container, you will go to jail and you will be charged with a felony.

Typically, no. While laws regarding firearms and their transport vary between jurisdictions, the states which do allow you to carry a firearm within reach while in your car do so with the requirement that it be kept in plain sight (e.g., passenger seat, dash, etc). You would only be able to keep it in your car if you had a concealed carry permit.
