I wave to every Jeep I pass, get maybe 50% returns. But when going through NJ and NY last year, the return % was ZERO. You have to ask yourself, why ? Are the Jeepers up north not a friendly.

On a recent long trip, I ran across countless jeeps. I waved at them all, but only approx 20% waved back.. My wife kept asking why I still waved even though I only got limited returns. I told her that even if they don't wave back, I'm going to continue to wave and the one's that responed, will appriciate the wave. At least I'm not killing it. Don't let it get to you too much, at least you're keeping the wave alive..

I had about given up getting a wave back today until a TJ responded. Its mostly the JKs that don't wave back in my area.

When I was researching Jeeps before I bought my Wrangler, I thought this "Jeep Wave" thing was a little goofy. Then after I had it for a year, I got used to waving. I told my wife last week, "Even on days when I feel like everyone hates me, I can still find someone I don't even know in a Wrangler who smiles and waves at me."

Then the next twenty Wranglers I passed didn't return my wave. Dammit.

(BTW, I don't really feel insulted if I don't get a wave back--even if I drive a JK. It's not like you have to take a class in Jeep etiquette before you buy a Wrangler.)

I probably get 90% return from lifted/modded Jeeps and 10-20% with stock Jeeps.

This is right on the money.

I noticed when driving either a rented JKU, or my parents stock Sahara JKU, there are not near as many waves as when I'm driving my basically stock 2dr Rubicon. 2dr Jeeps, along with modified Jeeps are more into the Jeep wave thing. With that said, I probably miss 15% of the waves because I was paying more attention to traffic or something else while commuting around town . I think it's still alive but that there are more 4dr (non-traditional) Jeep owners out there. Nothing wrong with that though.

Keep it up!

X2 Same. Modded jeepers are more 'likely' to return the wave or send one because they know the joy we feel more then likely a jeeper that has no mods or no changes (really ??) just bought it cause its a different 'car' to them...
