Want to keep the wave alive ???
Tell your local dealerships to tell new jeep customers about the wave!!!!
That's how I found out when I bought mine in 09.
Plus my girlfriend learned about the 'wave' on the internet!!
Here in Ontario Canada u see lots of jeeps 2 and 4 dr and I must say 80% wave back.
I HATE it too when they snub me!! Sometimes it's the TJ's all modded up that snub my 4 dr. I think my JKU looks pretty good though.

ANYWAYS don't give up waving .... hopefully the non wavers will catch on.

I had a TJ wave the other day. Seems like more Jeep owners used to wave then now. Maybe Jeep should show owners waving at each other in their ads.

Lack of waving isn't that well defined.

Make notes of those who wave, and those who don't. I think you'll find there are some from all Wrangler/CJ configurations that wave/don't wave.
It's a pretty even mix in my area.

Well I believe there are more soccer moms and old people that purchase four doors and they don't even know how to use 4 low. That being said you will really only get a wave from a four door if A.) They know about it or B.) You notice they have mods...its the stocks that are hit or miss on the wave, but mainly miss

Don't hate on us 4 door guys, I tell you I wave to every Jeep I see. I think it's a Georgia/Florida/Bama/West Coast thing. And I think there are quite a few moms driving Jeeps now
