This is exactly what we did with Zoee at first. Now she is two years old and still drools a lot while in the car, but she no longer gets sick.
So I think Ruby will eventually get use to riding in the car. Don't stop taking her places because you're afraid she'll get sick. Just bring lots of towels and try the Benedryl (we gave Zoee tablets but ask your vet for the correct dosage for her weight).
Good Luck!!
