I notice very little talk of XJs, dont forget they are jeeps to... I drive 1 and get very few waves from wranglers around BTW just because its stock does not mean it does not Wheel!

I wave at everyone even cops. But I started even when I had my XJ. This is the first Wrangler I've had and it's been great.

Strangest wave was at Uwharrie when I saw some guys driving a lifted golf cart with a 40 gallon cooler on the back...that was pretty sweet.

I would much rather someone buy a 2wd JK than a 2wd smart car or something...think about that.

Agreed. Keep Chrysler from doing what GMC did to Pontiac.

To me JK's are the equilvent of your wife having a baby thats the wrong race to be yours. In a way, you have to love it, but you just won't ever accept it. JK's are too "soccer mom" to be Jeeps IMO. The outside is nice, but that interior belongs in a Navigator or Escalade. Who wants their built in Nav system getting rained on ?

Yeah -- I'll keep you in mind if there is a fire since you have dual extinguishers.

In my youth I waved at everyone. Now......if your rig isnt built to what I think deserves a wave and I don't see you stick your hand up. Drive on.....

I take it you have never been in a Navigator or Escalade. Oh yeh I think TJs are for wimps! HAHAHA let see the responses this causes. I might get banned or something. Dont be a dork wave to everyone. And some of those soccer moms are hot too.

And still more "soccer mom" crap. Guess you fools are just too stupid to come up with something original.

What's old is now new again. I remember when people didn't wave at TJ's cause they didn't have leaf springs, and people didn't wave at YJs because they had square headlights. I can't wait for the next generation of Wrangler to come out so we can all pounce on them
