seriously. today I passed several jeeps, and none of them waved. although I was surprised to see an older woman with kids in the back of her jk wave to me first.
An honor bestowed upon those drivers with the superior intelligence, taste, class, and discomfort tolerance (exception to 97 and newer Jeep owners) to own the ultimate vehicle - the Jeep. Generally consists of either a raised hand waving or 4 fingers extended upward from the steering wheel, but may be modified to suit circumstances and locally accepted etiquette.

being new to jeeps I didn't know about the wave untill I was driving home the day I bought it. everybody in a jeep waves around here. My wife and kids are getting into to. It's kinda weird but cool. I recently drove to Myrtle Beach and my arm got tired of waving around Jacksonville, NC:laugh:
:wave::wave:
The problem is that a lot of people buy Jeeps not knowing the history or tradition. Jeeps have A LOT of history behind them! Keep the tradition going!:cheers2:
I am new to this group and I must say, NM has some stingy wavers! I am trying to change that around here in my 97 ZJ, which, buy the way, is an exception to the usual "97 and newer don't count" rule! My baby has all-custom offroading additions made by myself! Bring on the wave!:wave:
More than 75% of the time I wave, I receive one back again. We do have a variation on the jeep wave some do the middle finger wave, but I believe this happens mostly when one has just got cut off. :wave:
yeh ive noticed the peace sign aournd here ( just soutj of chicago) the land rover wave was the same when i had one of them , its always the clean new ones that dont understand what they have brought in to lol
:2thumbsup:
I wave at every Jeep I see,whether the driver is looking at me or not.I also get a lot of waves back.
Funny thing,last Saturday I was in my wife's car,she was driving,I saw a Jeep coming and I waved,my wife thought i was crazy,I just laughed and said "it's a Jeep thing" lol
