Maybe he was trying to flag you down so you would pull over and let him admire your jeep??

Did that just yesterday in my Mustang GT Convertible. I guess with the top down I thought I was in my Jeep. My son asked did you know him? I said no...he said why did you give him a Jeep wave while in the Mustang? I said force of habit.

Atleast the Hummer or FJ are 4x4 rigs and if they wave first I wave back, but I have a 'beats all' I was riding my Harley the other day and a guy on a 50cc scooter waved at me give me a break - I think his license plate was DUI ... something.

Ah, I do this all the time in my Civic or old VW van - I forget what I am driving! Maybe they have a JK too and forgot.

(Secretly I like the Hummer, I came *that close* to buying an H3 Alpha instead of the JK - it was just too wide and too expensive.)

Yeah, I'll wave if it's initiated by them. So far the only vehicle to wave other than a wrangler has been an H1. Oh, and a school bus of kids waving when I was riding doorless this morning.

I had a guy in a Ford 150 hauling his lawn care service trailer wave to me yesterday - Jeep envy or Undercover Jeeper ?

x2!! Totally agree and I have quite a few that give a wave or nod. The sad part is that sometimes I see more waves and nods from non jeep owners than those who do.

haha its the same around here, i wave to anyone and everyone. if they have a lifted truck that i think is cool...i wave. if they have a modded fj...i wave...i havent waved to a h2 or h3 yet...but they havent looked worthy. its soo sad that jks around here rarely wave back...and any other jeeps rarely wave either...sooo sad

I didn't realize the wave was so exclusive. I've been waving to other Hummers, Jeeps, and 4x4's since our first Hummer that we owned. I will say that the Hummer wave has died like some people think the Jeep wave has. If I'm in the 3 I'll wave to jeeps that look like they wheel because it's about offroading for me, not the vehicle and if they see the 3, they should know it gets used for what it was made to do.... Stupid soccer moms...

End of rant...
