When I get the riocar this week, I'm going to want the songs to play in the order of the album as if they were cd's. I have begun to group them all into their own folders, ex. the Sevendust - Seasons folder would contain all the songs numbered in order, but it may also contain the m3u that I used to play them on the pc. Does simply seperating the songs into different folders allow them to be played together? And if it does, if the m3u get's loaded will it repeat the playlist or just not play?

If you pick that playlist (ie the Album level) then the content should be played in order (barring Shuffle being ON). You may want to make sure you're track names on the PC sorts alphabetically in proper track order (for instance, prepend the padded track_no to the name) in order to simplify things. If you pick a higher level, for instance Artist, then you should get the tracks within an album in order, and album after album played (again, depending on the Shuffle setting)

If you drag and drop your entire hierarchy at once, I'd leave out the m3u files, it at least used to lead to doubles - not so sure nowadays, was a long time since I did a large sync...

Oh yeah, if you haven't already - read through the excellent FAQ

Yeah I've been checking on the faq, it just didn't seem clear to me about the folders thing. I've erased all my m3u's, and my tracks are in their appropriate album folder as follows without the brackets (TRUSTcompany-The Lonely Position of Neutral-02-Falling Apart) and so on and so forth. I have a lot of work to do, it's tough I used music brainz to tag all of them and it has corrupted some of the mp3s, some pop and crack now but I'm getting through it all, thanks for the replies guys.
