I've noticed lately that I've been getting the nod, and not the wave. Anyone else?

I pulled up next to an unlimited today during rush hour. I waved and got the nod in return. Better than the dear in the headlight look I guess.

Not a good feeling....but I natter away, my husband has a 2007 C6 Corvette, with the noisy headers and Corsa exhaust...one of my co-wokers just bought a 2011 Mustang...5.0short shift....so in no way am I afraid of cars....they are "afraid of Jeeps"

I would not trade either of them for my Jeep....dunno people its just a feeling when I get in that truck, no matter where/when/how/why....its a Jeep....and I respect that, and I respect all the funny looks..."a MOM driving a Jeep, Jeep...."guess thats why the guys have their Corvettes, Mustangs, Cadillacs???

Its just a feeling, like Im in my element????????????? I was not born to drive a Corvette, we have had this car for two years I have not driven it??? Its a damn car thats why and I dont like it, my husband choses my Jeep all the time (doesnt wanna mile out the other car) but can he shift............NOPE....I'll need a new tranny/clutch if I let him drive it any more...........how do you miss 3rd gear????

Its a truck....3rd gear is always where it should be.....and I had an old Nova,,,3 in the tree????

Happy Trails

P.S. Looking for a Canadian site to buy die cast????
nice post dear, i m waiting your more posts.......

I used to own Pontiac Fieros...the last of which was a cherry 1988 GT...and there was a 'Fiero wave' of sorts...I remember it being sort of a nod combined with a slightly uplifted left arm...at the window...

Looking forward to the Jeep Wave...or whatever it is!!!

I always wave but since I'm a new owner I gotta admit sometimes I'm late on the trigger and the other driver misses my wave. Promise to do better.

I've owned a Cj and two Yjs and have always waved. And yes I am a proud British Columbian. I found because the CJ was unique it got the most return waves but I still get over 50% with the Yj. Keep waving and people seem to catch on.

When we went on a trip to Muskoka all through northern Ontario jeepers were great waving (about 95% waved back) Only to get back home to Manitoba to the unfriendly it seems
I still keep waving, hoping more will start waving or get back to waving again

I guess I'm having so much fun driv'in my jeep I can't help but smile and wave!
Yeah I'm having a tough go at in. In Winnipeg it's hard to get a wave. Out of town a little easier. You'll know me when you see my jeep, I don't think Winnipeg has many Dozer colored jeeps yet.
