No Jeep waves here :(

[Petey]

Was down in Florida last week in a rental JLU and went from Tampa to Lakeland to Orlando. Waved at everyone I passed and not one wave back the entire time I was there. Sad!

the problem is with the JLs is that with those loose steering boxes if u just take one second to wave u could end up in an accident.

While visiting NYC i noticed tons of drivers giving each other the one finger wave including cops

Here in Monmouth County NJ they're waving.....

Monmouth County here also and I concur, lots of waving around here.

OR you could go to a mechanic and see why your Jeep drives like .........

I have family in upstate NY and Jeep drivers there just don't wave - so much so that it's noticeable. Of course, that also may have something to do with my MA plates.

The problem with the Jeep wave is that there are so many Wranglers on the road. The "kinship" feel works better with less ubiquitous vehicles. I gave it up a few years ago when the return wave percentage dropped (way) below 50%.

As a new Jeep owner, I haven’t experienced a single Jeep wave yet! I waved to almost all the Jeep’s I’ve seen and I think they just look at me strange. NY area. Guess I should stop waving - lol. Anyone in a 100 mile radius of NYC get/give waves?

In NYC I have gotten 1 in 2 yrs. Anytime your out of the city, you get more waves. Lol.

I regularly get waves. Most of the non waves are from stock wranglers.

Have you tried waving like this?

No wave unless awkward eye contact has been established

When I got my JL early 2018, I was getting waves left and right in the NYC/LI area. Over the last year its been non existent. Don't know why.

Here is Knoxville, TN I would say that my "wane back" success is about 90% or so.

I get ur point. When I get a chance I will take the thing to the dealer ( still under warrante) but I already know what they'll say ...Oh there is nothing wrong with the vehicle it drives like a jeep should. One has to be weary of mechanics at times too. Especially when they tell u these kind of things
