Default Is the Jeep wave dead?

I live and work in the KW/Cambridge area, and for the last month or so I haven't received a single Jeep wave in return. This is leading me to wonder if the Jeep wave is dead or... dying?

I thought it happened (or didn`t mainly in T.O. Oh well I guess its been a long and cold winter which can lead to rigamortis of the hand I hear. Give it another couple of weeks and the symptoms should subside LOL

This photo u posted might be the "kick" to get it going again. I have found that since my ride is a tj that mostly the jk drivers have a broken arm when it comes to waving. But the tj and the yj and even allot of xj still have a strong arm.

Since I was told once by a friend that I looked like my eye's are glued on the road and I missed his wave to me as we past. I now make sure that I look around more and wave like there is a bee in the truck. Live and Learn lol

my biggest constraint is that even though I live in the city, I see alot of jeeps (girls don't wave..) But my biggest problem is I can't wave when i am shifting gears, that seems to be when I see them the most when Im turning a corner or slowing down. Not much I can do about that!

I think theres only 2 JK's in town that do not wave on a regular basis... one works at the post office, the other is this arctic edition... she seems too busy on her phone to realise whats going on around her...

some days i wish i was a cop lol...

but i think few are waving because their watching out for deathwobble from these pot holes we have going on.

lots more Jeeps on the road. There should be an information sheet with the sale of every Jeep regarding the wave. That said I wave but only to oncoming Jeeps in the adjacent lane. If they are two lanes over I do not wave. I was also told that modified jeeps should wait for the unmodified jeeps to wave first...

(but only on alternate Tuesdays...lol)
