So i've been here for 2 months now and I've noticed something......the jeep wave doesn't exist in this city.  I came from Saint John NB and back there the only jeepers that didn't wave were soccor moms.  Now I know there are alot of jeeps here, not all off roaders, but not one has waved?  Whats up with that????  Just ranting, so I'd appreciate no flaming back towards me..thanks



I guess you haven't heard the news yet. Apparently Chryler recalled all jeep waves about 15 years ago. It's old news. They found there was a weak wrist pin in the wave causing most wrists to go limp there by getting the finger in return bacause some didn't care for a weak wristed wave.. :lol:



If people aren't saluting me with one finger, I can't wave back anyways,  because both of my hands are usually on the back of my Jeep pushing it home. :lol:

I usually get a "one finger salute", but thats probably cus I drive a comanche.


Haha! I hear that.  I read that link and I was laughing pretty hard.  I wave to modded Jeeps, the occasional nonmod, and never waved at a Liberty or Commander.

Not real sure, I just get the finger or yelled at.   :twisted: But I think people with Jeeps wave at other people with Jeeps (I think they're the kind of Jeeps where the roof comes off, you know, the non practical kind :wink:  :wink: )  People whos' Jeeps start with M, K, X or ZJ (forgive me if I missed a few Jeeps that don't start with a C, Y or TJ) usually never get waves, or thats been my experience anyhow. :lol:  :lol:  8)

The Jeep wave is performed by drivers of jeeps in which the top can be removed because without the top down, you bang your head when it's your turn to stand up and throw your arms in the air!
