Enjoy the Ride is the second album by the country duo Sugarland. The album was released on November 7, 2006, with "Want To" as the album's lead single.

The album debuted at #4 on the US Billboard 200 and at #2 on the US Country Album Chart, selling 211,000 copies in its first week;^[1] these were also its peak positions on the two charts.^[2]

iTunes has a pre order of the album that comes with the videos for "Want To" and "These Are the Days", suggesting "These Are the Days" is a probable single. However, the duo performed "Settlin" on the 2006 CMA show; hence, the track has picked up momentum in the digital download area, and has since been released as second single. "Want To" reached #1 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, holding the position for three weeks in December 2006. Also in December, after only five weeks in release, the RIAA certified "Enjoy the Ride" platinum, for shipments of 1 million copies.
