Wasn’t that what Billy Bob Thornton said in the Landman series?
Exactly. That's why it's in the quotations. I was wondering if someone will get it. Nevertheless,....it's true for Midland County, TX as well as Lemhi County, ID.

Unfortunately old Henry Ford was supposedly quite fond of it as well.
That’s a misnomer. Henry Ford did not support the Nazi party. His meetings with Hitler were before all that, and they just shared interest in manufacturing ideas. I’m sure Ford came to later regret his meetings with that lunatic.

If someone is waving, honking, or flashing lights at me on the road, I’m thinking something is wrong either with them or the road ahead.

Just drive.

Yep some places are friendlier than others. We still acknowledge other folks when we meet, whether on a sidewalk or down a country road.

It depends on location. Over here, we have "free range state".....meaning animals have "right of way". Twisty road with limited visibility, cliff on one side, and the river on the other (no guard rails). There are cows, sheep, deer, elk, and many other smaller critters on the road (not to mention rocks/boulders after the rain). Locals know the time of the day (or night) when the animals are on the move, and either stay home at that time, or drive very carefully. Tourists however........a lot of them die on 93 every year or kill animals for which they are financially liable (when it comes to cows/sheep/horses). Flashing hi-beams means " slow down MF, you are about to be in trouble".

Naw man Ford was a well documented antisemitic, Ford even wrote a book about it. The International Jew, the World's Foremost Problem - Henry Ford.
Hitler had a picture of Ford in his office. It went way beyond a shared interest in manufacturing.

Since I got my Bronco, I noticed that a number of Bronco owners give me thumbs up or beep when we meet on the road. Is there some kind of Bronco salute going on?
I always give a quick flash of lights or a wave but rarely does anyone respond. People don’t seem to be into traditions any more 😣

Not going to lie, Bronco owners I see on road around me seem to be stuck up lol.

More likely to get the finger than a wave/salute.

F them lol is how I think. I wave anyway in my BBR

Out here in North Texas, well West of FTW.
Not one jeep person will wave or give the ol finger wave lmao.
Especially in our town. My wife thinks it’s funny and says “jeep people are strange creatures 😂 when they see our Bronco”

We both wave not thinking about it to other broncos,

then we see some Sport owners usually younger look at each other and look. At ours and we think they probably tell each other “we (them) chose the wrong Bronco” 😂

I’ve had mine nearly a month and have gotten one thumbs up from a lady driving an identical looking one I passed in a small town in NoVa. I got one wave from another Bronco driver passing me in my neighborhood. Usually if they notice me at all they just look, occasionally they point or rubberneck. I tried a low-key wave at Walmart to a Badlands driver with a GMRS radio antenna and light bar mods but he ignored me. Lol.
