Keep score! The Jeep Wave!
What's the (guesstimate) percentage of Jeep drivers who waved back at you today?

I do pretty good out here in Waukesha. It's been a good couple weeks. I got a thumbs up from a guy in an older modded cherokee when I was fully naked.
I just saw the today part, nice.

On my way to and from work, I generally pass the same jeeps, with a stray thrown in there once in a while. They all look for it first. Then wave. So it's 80%, but if I didn't wave first, I'd say it's more like 20%.

8 out of 10...and ya ticks me off not everyone waves.
HOWEVER, top marks for the 'Technical Wave'
-passing on the highway and extending your hand before passing so that the other Jeep does not miss your wave. Almost like a pre-wave.
-yesterday stuck in traffic, topless, and comming up to a VIA duct, another jeep waved at me as they wer stuck on the over pass looking down on me.

I went to work this morning and passed about 5 Jeeps. Most of them were ones I pass every moring. There was an Unlimited Sahara, an Unlimited Rubicon and 2 or 3 TJs and not a single one waved this morning! Sometimes I just think its the TJ/JK thing but when two JKs didn't wave back I was pretty bummed...

About 95% of the time I get a wave back from 2 door jeeps. It's the exact opposite for the 4 doors. I don't know if its just my area but 9 times out of 10 there's a woman driving the JKU's and they act like they have never heard of the jeep wave.

I just moved to AZ from MA, and i got more waves back from soccer moms in stock jeeps then i do from lifted jeeps here in AZ 
Im thinkin it must be the 4 lane roads, but i almost never see a wave initiated unless its an old jeep like a YJ/CJ
