If you pass a military flattie you should wave alot , but they don;t really have to wave , because they think your Jeep is not a real Jeep !

Similar here in Westchester County, NY. So many jeeps. mostly moms... I'd say about 15% of the time i get a wave back.
However, other than some DIY mods my jeep is still stock, so once i get my 33s, lift, bump, winch, etc, maybe i'll start getting a few more waves.
Keep Calm and Wave On

I hear ya. It used to be the norm here in Oregon but too many soccer moms and posers are buying wrangler now. They don't have a clue. If they are stock, I don't waste my time trying to get a reaction.

I get few if any waves on Long Island. Sad, but I get the wave from fellow jeeps with mods. While I have upgraded tires, lift, and many non visible mods on outside, why not wave to all? Even those without mods? Maybe, just maybe they remain stock or look stock due to recent purchase and no funds at moment.
Lets not profile. We all bought a wrangler for a reason. That alone binds us.
Wave on, Jeepers!
