Default Got a wave from a JKU today!

Had to share my story!!! Most JKs in my area, especially jkus, are mostly just soccer moms or things like that. Well today i was driving down a 2 lane road and got a wave from a lady in a jku with aftermarket on road wheels and tires. First wave in 2 months

Love JKU's! So realistic especially if you have a family!

We r rare. That's for sure. I wave at JKU's in my area (myself being one as well), and only get a wave back 1/5 times. Wave at two doors and get about 3/5 back. Wave at modded XJ's and they almost wave back every time. I imagine they feel cool to be appreciated by a wrangler owner.

Hey I wave at every JK regardless of JK or JKU. Not everyone with a JKU is a soccer mom.

Around here 90 percent of jku's are soccer moms and dads.

I have a 2012 JKU and it's my first Jeep. Your observation is about what I get here too. It's annoying but I'm going to keep waving.
