My wife just says im an idiot for waving. I don't really wave anymore, as I never get the return. What I do now, is the jeep nod, works way better, and is returned 75% of the time.

First jeep wave we got, we both thought the other knew the person & we waved back. Lol! BIG 'L' on the forehead. Didn't take us long to figure it out. Anyway, haven't stopped waving since.

Unfortunately I am in the same boat....I get A.."you guys are nerds"or something alone those lines when shes in the Jeep, mainly because I wave first...until last week we're rolling in traffic in front of home depot and another jk gives a huge reaching wave and hold it nice and proud! I of course wave back and glance over to my girlfriend...she has a shit eating grin and is blushing finally realizing the kinship among Jeep owners! I wanted to pull up to the guy and thank him for doing one thing I could never do...get my girlfriend to shutup and admit that she was wrong and that the Jeep family is a great to be a part of!

In the same 5 minutes I got a wave from a VERY extensively modified (in a good way) CJ and a disdainful dirty look from a lightly modified TJ! LOL! Around here it seems a good number of TJ owners are snobbish toward JKs, LOL!

Haha, yeah my gf gave me grief about it for a while...but I think she understands it a little better now after learning to drive a stick on my Jeep :thumb: it's definitely a Jeep thing.
