I have different waves for different jeep encounters.
The standard wave; either the left or right hand full palm forward slight side to side motion
For a heavy modified jeep; The out the window or missing door wave. Some times with a hang loose hand gesture.If the driving conditions won't allow a full wave you might get a left hand fingers up from the steering wheel.
For those non jeep divers that have done something stupid well they get a less friendly hand gesture
Don't give up the tradition .
PS. Some of the new owners may suffer from premature wave, or trying to adjust to the new vehicle.

Checked my dealer in Mississauga. If it is Yellow, it has mellowed. It is a 2010. Not available as a 2011 option.

My two cents on the body coloured hard top. PFFFFFT. NOT a Jeep thing.

I too will wave forever...education is the only way for those who bought a Jeep just to own one.

True Jeep enthusiasts are Jeep lovers. I am always thrilled for people when they get their first, second or tenth Jeeps and are dying to show them off.

I have been a Jeep owner since getting my first vehicle. An 87 Jeep Cherokee Laredo that was left to me. (should have never sold it). Then my 85 Jeep CJ7, (which I still own, but isn't running at this time), and my Grand Cherokee Ltd, which I sold a few years ago. Last year we bought a 2010 Jeep Wrangler Sahara Unlimited.....but that is my wife's and now I've got a real bad itch to get my CJ redone. Or get an 07 or 08 2dr std Rubicon. Only thing getting in the way is $$$$$$$.

My kids will own Jeeps when they begin to drive, and they will be taught to wave.

I find a lot of people still wave on the highway, but it's not so common in town which is understandable since I live in a very small community.

My two cents. Love your Jeep.

I've been at the dealer for an oil change and watched folks test drive a new Jeep. Ya just want to say to them 'go for it....its the best vehical on earth'....explain to them what the Jeep lifestyle is all about, tell them to wave.

My kids think it's a blast, they wave too. Always on the look out, they know the drill.

Most of my waves are in town, very very few on the highway.?? What the??

Well put...Love Your Jeep!

I have to admit when I see the lights and grill of a Jeep coming my heart gives a little flutter and I wonder if their going to wave. I always do , even to 4 doors . It's nice to see people wave back , I think it makes us special in a good way ! LOL
