Nope never wave, I always thought of it as more of a bike/Jeep thing. (I dont even wave in my Mustang). That is unless someone waves to me first. I dont wanna be rude lol.

lol x2 i just flip people off. and they usually flip me off back so i guess its kinda like a wave thing...... I don't even understand it on a bike...... let alone a mustang...... or jeep or whatever else. if a bike is close to me and another biker waves at him, I will wave also.

Basically this.

Although, a while back ago I met a fellow Ranger owner at a gas station and we got to talking about our trucks. Next time I saw him he gave me a wave, so after that, the few times we've seen each other we've waved. Closest thing to a Ranger wave I do.

We do that alot with my Ranger. I have a PA system with siren and horn, we drive through downtown fredericksburg and holler at all the drunkies on friday and saturday nights.

I think the whole middle finger thing is a great idea. I'll try it tomorrow on my way to work.

You know what is even more fun. Drive by one of the local porn shops beeping and waving when you see people coming or going. They get all freaked out and hide their faces. It's hysterical.

No waving around here thank god.
I find it as annoying as the high five!
Like every boater has to wave at each other. When on our boat I left the job of waving to the Wife.

A couple of weeks ago at the liquor store, I parked, and a guy walking back to his car asked what year my Ranger was.
We spent a good 5 minutes BS'ing about Rangers.

I think the wave is reserved for motorcycles and Jeeps. The motorcycle is more of a downward point or slant. And the Jeep one is more of a super secret bro hand shake only the cool kids do.

Around here we just holler at the cute girls and let the drunks alone.

The motorcycle "wave" is more than a wave, its two fingers pointing down to symbolize keeping 2 wheels on the ground.
