Default Florida Jeep Wave

I guess today is just my day of posting. Once you start you can't stop! Besides, the Sunshine state seems slow today...

I know the Jeep wave has been covered in every way possible, but what is it about people in Central Florida that just can't wave to a girl? And then when I do actually get a wave it's at a time that I'm doing something or just see it as they are gone and feel bad that I didn't wave back. It makes me want to turn around and chase them down to wave!

FL is where people go to retire... They usually can't remember to wave it seems.

it's the same story here. only had three waves and they weren't even when i was in my Jeep. we were in my Dads JK once and he was by himself the other times. most Jeepers don't even look when passing around here. maybe it's because i'm all stock.....haha

I waved to 5 different Wranglers today.
Not a single one waved back.
Their drivers didn't either.

My fiance always makes fun of me cuz i'm always waving and no one waves back.
My girlfriend does the same thing when shes in a bad mood, which is at least 7 days a month. I've slowly been reviving the wave here in Gainesville. I usually get more than 50% of the waves I give. I got a YJ to remember the wave after waving for 2 weeks straight. Just keep trying.
