Jeep wave to gladiator?

[NWJeepr]

There's so many Jeeps and Gladiators it's kind of annoying to wave at them all these days. I'm guilty of not waving sometimes, anymore. Do Chrysler Pacifica drivers wave at each other? That's kind of what the Jeep wave has turned into. But, I'll still throw deuces off the top of the steering wheel once in a while...

Gladiators don’t wave back ?

I’ve noticed that too but I’ve gotten to the point that I just throw the wave and keep going…a lot of times I don’t even look to see if they responded ??‍

I wave at every Jeep regardless of angry grills, model, year, condition, color, doors, top, lights, bumpers, decals, if it's a jeep I wave. I even waved at a bronco the other day, he flipped the bird, I didn't appreciate that.

But.... ?

Yes I’ve been guilty of waving to a bronco too ??‍??

There were 3 jeeps in a row and the bronco was right behind the last jeep so I just threw him a wave too, I figured it was harmless enough. I got the strongest impression the bronco saw me waving at the jeeps because this young punk was ready with both birds flying high. Probably in mom or dad's new bronco, I just smiled, no big deal.

Omg I burst out laughing. That poor baby ??

Of course.

Am I the only one that counted?

No.
And the joke checks out.
So I waved.

Would you Wranglers Jeep wave gladiators at all?

I'm a Gladiator driver and I wave to Wranglers all the time.

I will admit, the ones I see that are stock and have 100 ducks across the dash, not as much because they never wave back.. I used to try and be friendly towards them, but rarely got a response... usually it was a female(maybe confusing a wave with hitting on her?)or a young kid on their phone.

So in short, don't be scared to give your Gladiator brothers some love ?

I see it as the same vehicle with a bed on the rear. Same everything else right? So yes, they get a wave. Just not the rest of the Jeep line like Liberty, Compass, etc...

Gladiators don’t wave back ?

Why wouldn't you? It's a Jeep. If it has seven slots in the grill go ahead and wave.

The honest answer is because I’m kinda old and only give selective waves out based on whether I like the other Jeep. I don’t wave at pavement princesses just like I don’t wave at other BMW drivers. My wife makes up for it though by waving at everyone.

It's still a Wrangler in my opinion, just a truck version. My way of looking at it, with any Jeep, is if they wave, I'll prob wave back, if I'm not other wise distracted. I don't drive around on point looking for Jeeps to wave at.

I look at it like this:

Wrangler = Regular Snicker Bar

Gladiator = King Size Snicker Bar

Sure I try and wave. It’s hard though, I live in the wooded mountains. Every third vehicle is a Jeep, the other two thirds are dodge 2500, and Chevy 2500.

and by the way, I try to watch the road so I don’t t bone an elk, that will end your day, so most of the time I wave too late. In other words, I am usually waving at the car behind the Jeep. That gets some funny looks, most wave back.

I have both a JL and a JT (yes, it’s the Mojave with the phony scewp) and I usually wave at Wranglers and Gladiators……when I’m paying attention.

I may need to change my wave technique ??

Not to start a confrontation here but I find it ironic that you have no problem communicating in a Jeep Forum reaching out to far more peeps… but I guess everyone here has been vetted somehow?

No , you said it about right... that guy jumped off the cliff really fast. Some people should just stay home.
