Now I buy a jeep, whose primary purpose is supposed to be offroad, and the majority of the people I see driving them are people who couldn't tell you where a trail was. SO therefore we share no interests, don't wave my way please.

I just can't stand the people with the stick figure families on the back window of their stock JK. The people who I will wave and acknowledge are the little kids I see occasionally staring at the jeep. I wave to my friends, not strangers. And I have a brother and 2 co-workers with modded jk's, and we all feel the same way about the "jeep wave"

Fatalshot, you certainly seem to have a lot of anger towards a simple little gesture of acknowledgement and respect. If it bothers your ego that much, perhaps you should sell your JK. Until then, a great big 'JEEP WAVE' ? to you my friend.
