Default Weather and the Wave

Temps in the upper 80s here in Philly these days and I have my hard top off and having fun.

I noticed I've been getting a lot more Jeep Waves in the last 24 hours. The nice weather is obviously putting Jeepers in a better mood. Stock, modded, the young, the old, male and female all waving and/or returning waves.

On a side note, this morning I was filling up the gas tank just before the price took another astronomical leap and from the other side of the pump I hear someone exclaim "that's awesome!". A guy filling up his F150 pickup started checking out my JK and asking questions about removing the top and doors and said he'd have to get a manual tranny just so his wife couldn't drive it.

My pretty ordinary JK was getting a lot of attention today.

I'm hoping to take the hardtop off tomorrow & put the softtop on so I can take it off when it stops raining here. Already got my (manually operated) hardtop lift assembled in the garage & hanging from the rafters. Supposed to be 70 on Sunday. TOPLESS baby!!! woohoo!!!!

nobody lives here this time of year, but the cows do wave back, and the jelous stares from the horses make my day.

Yeah, it's probably a 2wd 4dr, too. C'mon, seriously, what was Jeep thinkin' when they decided to make a 2wd Wrangler?

Yep, I am in a better mood, more waves. I had a guy in a Minivan roll down his windows and start asking me questions at a stop light. Then a lady stopped on a cross street, that did not have a stop sign, holding up traffic, so she could get a look at my Jeep when I turned.....Life is Good
