Haha that's great I had the same idea?
But how come nobody waves to the grands, patriates, or compasses? Aren't they Jeeps also( a bit mainstream I know)

You see, that right there, I don't get. So they get caught in the crossfire of a jeep wave as they sit in their car, and they just stare at you. Come on people, be friendly. I don't give a crap if you are in as jeep or not, if a person waves at you, wave the hell back at them.

Lol! Im talking about the soccer moms that drive them. I get plenty of waves from the 4dr group but not from the soccer moms. I got a good laugh out of that!

Hold on now. A grand Cherokee is a suv. A JEEP IS A WILLY OR A TJ OR A CJ. NOT A SUV!

In the manual of my old 1978 CJ5 it said that one of the reasons poeple but jeeps are for the comradarie that it carries and that you should wave at every Jeep that you pass. (not exact by any means) I looked in my 2011 JK manual and there was no such statement. maybe that is why so few jeepers still do this.

The Jeep Wave is alive and well in San Jose, CA. Although I sometimes get ignored by Unlimited drivers.

Every time someone gives me the "jeep wave", I kindly give them mymiddle finger in return. I hate the whole stupid jeep culture, makes me almost wish i bought a FJ. Just because we drive the same vehicle doesn't mean we're friends, don't wave at me.
