Yes, but you still got one.

I told you before that you caught me by surprise. Besides, chicks in lifted Jeeps make me nervous.

I looked it up on line in the urban dictionary and it clearly states that a jeep wave is between two people driving jeeps. Sorry, it doesn’t count.

here U GO:

The Jeep Wave: An honor bestowed upon those drivers with the superior intelligence, taste, class, and discomfort tolerance to own the ultimate vehicle - the Jeep. Generally consists of vigorous side-to-side motion of one or both hands, but may be modified to suit circumstances and locally accepted etiquette. Examples of commonly accepted modifications:
Top off: One handed wave above windshield or outside body tub
Top off during blizzard: Shiver and nod, hands may remain frozen to steering wheel
Southern/rural locations: Raise fingers from steering wheel, nod

Totally agree. My wave ratio has skyrocketed since I got up off the ground! I'm good for about a wave a week. Ok maybe not that many. The soccer moms, though, they're killin me...

Strainger, I give you a +1! Thanks also for coming to breakfast last week. Good talking to ya.

Uh, not usually from Mall-Crawlers. The gals seem to be looking at something else, maybe a flyer for the mall or something.

I had a guy weave through traffic the other day to catch up tp me so his Kids could wave at me! they were very enthusiastic! No, i didn't know him.

That's great, my kids think I am nuts doing the wave although every once and while I catch them watching to see if the other Jeep is waving.

I don't know what you guys are talking about?

I got three waves yesterday alone from 3 different Jeeps! In the RAIN even!

And I live in the Valley, probably the least friendly place on earth.

Oh, maybe they were afraid I was crazy and gonna shoot at them if they didn't wave back. After all it is the valley.

That’s not a typical day but I usually get one or two a day.

Maybe you guys are scaring off the other jeeps, are you leaning out the window driving with your knee swerving erratically while waiving with both hands? Oh wait that was my wife... shh! don't tell her I said that.

I grew up in California but I went to college in the mid-west and I do admit I got a lot more waives back there.
