Yes. To be legal, it must be unloaded and inacessible. If you don't have a carry permit, the best place to store it is in the trunk, or if you don't have a trunk, as far to the rear of the car (away from anyone in the car) as you can put it. If you have a carry permit from any state in the U.S. you can carry it loaded and accessible. Tennessee recognizes permits from any state.

If you have a valid handgun permit from any U.S. state, you can carry the gun loaded and have it anywhere in the vehicle. If you do not have a valid carry permit, you must abide by federal transport law, which basically says the gun must be unloaded and not accessible. The best choice is unloaded and in the trunk with the ammo in a separate container.

It depends on what you mean exactly. You can transport an unloaded handgun in your vehicle while you travel as long as the handgun isn't accessible to you. However, if you have a handgun carry permit, you can carry the gun on your person in some states. That said, you can carry a handgun on your person inside your car in some states without a permit.
