It's kinda funny, I didn't know about the wave until a couple people gave me the thumbs up or a wave.

My wife just shakes her head. After riding a bike for years, and waving at other motorcyclists, it's like I joined another secret club.

No matter what I drive now, I can't leave the house without having to wave at somebody. Gots lotsa friends!

Living in NJ theres a decent amount of people that wave back but almost every woman i have driven by with a hard top 4 door (no offense to those who have 4 doors) doesnt wave back. This also includes an unfourtunate number of men...

I wave to every Wrangler, even across six lanes of traffic. Some wave back out of courtesy, wondering who I am.

I'm pretty sure that the jeep is the state car of Utah. It sometimes would be easier to wave at those NOT driving a Jeep around here.

I always wave People in Michigan tend not to wave, people in Pennsylvania always wave at me.

Keep the wave going. It cannot die with the JK...

Haha! I vacationed in the Bryce area this summer. My arm got tired of waving! All Jeepers wave there. I love Utah.

I live a few miles north of the PA border in Western NY. It is actaully much more like PA than NY. I wave at all wranlgers and get a wave back 90% of the time. JK's almost always, TJ's and YJ's nearly 100%. Since we live in rust belt I have not seen too many cj's. I love living in rural america. When I go to the city (Buffalo NY) no one waves though.
