And a way of life to the rest of us.

Maybe add one of these on your mirror or windshield, and they'll get the idea

I think they're called "Jeep wave decals", the guy was a vendor here. Ebay should have something too if you can't find it here.

Most don't know but the jeep wave originated when the military used wrangler in base. When officers drove past one and other in there gov. Issued wrangler they would always throw a wave. And that's why we try to carry the tradition on !!

Interesting. Hadn't heard that before. Should point out I think you meant "Jeeps" instead of "Wranglers". Wrangler name wasn't used until the YJs came out.

In most cases, I'd bet that it's a stock Wrangler that doesn't wave back.

However, even among us "in the know" of the jeep wave, it's sometimes someone with the uber-heavily modded Wranglers who won't wave back at those with lesser-modded Wranglers. They might feel too cool to even pass a "mod-nod" less a wave...and I'd bet in many of those cases, they didn't even turn one wrench on their ride, just paid $$$.

You'll get used to it...just keep waving!
