Portable DVD player- preferably with headphones so you aren't tortured by it the whole time!

Re: Must Haves for a long car trip with a 2yo
My DD is 4 now but even since she was 2, I usually bring a portable DVD player and a few shows/movies she likes. Maybe some new sticker books too. Usually I hide a few new things (nothing expensive, just activity books and stuff like that) so they're a novelty and keep her happy and interested for a while since she's never seen them before. She also loves the color magic books that come with the pen. Of course the pen never lasts but they're fun while they do.  Like this one...
Colorblast book

DVD player for sure! That's the only thing that helps for a considerable amount of time.
Other things I usually pack would be the water wow or marker magic type books, a little bag filled with smaller toys she can dump out and refill a bunch, the favorite stuffed animal of the moment.

A metal cookie sheet! Best thing we brought with us when we drove to Hilton Head last year. I brought animal and vehicle magnets, and DS drove his cars across it.

Re: Must Haves for a long car trip with a 2yo
In the car now on a long trip.
Not sure how long you're driving for but I keep a basket full of small toys (play phones, books etc) for when the passenger needs to sleep this way the driver can easily pass the kids stuff since they drop everything on the floor.
In addition to DVD player, new fun snacks,
