I'm in a pretty wavy back-woods part of the country anyway but I go out of my way to wave at: friends, neighbors, anybody who has clearly put a bunch of work into their ride no matter if its my style or not as I dig the effort. Its almost always reciprocated. Bonus enthusiasm if its muddy and or slightly busted up
Man, you’re in the best part of the country hands down. Brevard looks beautiful, good food, good Southern folk, outdoors things to do everywhere and yes, very wavy and just all around nice people. I’ve had waves, flashing lights, honks, and shout out love for my Bronco when visiting there and the Asheville area, bet you get a ton of that too.

Shame with that hurricane, but I pray the build back doesn’t lose the charm and culture of the area.

Not at all. This isn't a wavy part of the country anyway, if you wave at someone you're just as likely to get back a death glare as a wave.
Jeezus…where do you live? North Korea?

I don’t get waves from Jeeps unless I know them. Used to have a Jeep and wouldn’t wave to a Bronco either. At some point I was kinda tired of the whole wavy wave, and would only wave back or to a specially cool Jeep.

With the Bronco, I do get waves from everyone when I’m out in the trails. And I also get waves from other Bronco owners. I admin the 6G Bronco club of my province/state and so I think people recognize it, or are just too nice! Which is pretty cool NGL!

Fun fact, I have another 4x4 club and most of the trucks are Jeeps, first time I test drove my Bronco I sent this photo to them saying I was practicing my new Jeep Wave! 😂

Back when the dealer was trying to push me 20” wheels 💀

Another time I got a black duck because apparently Broncos are the black sheep of the Jeep family. My dog enjoys destroying that duck very much lol

that’s one thing, I appreciate the ducking gesture - the idea behind it - but do not miss tossing ducks in the trash every week lol

Only from other Bronco owners (occasionally). In the beginning it was quite fun seeing another Bronco and waving energetically at each other. Now, it’s rare.
From jeeps it’s never. Zero people in the parking lot and I strolled out to see the one other car parked next to me. I chuckled and put a Bronco duck on the door.

Wasn't there a pecking order to the Jeep waves on who was supposed to wave first? Do they think we are supposed to wave first?

I was greeted with brights in a parking lot outside my recreation center today. I did not retaliate, switched my A-pods from backlight to fog as I backed out the of my parking spot. The friendly neighbor fled.

Had a few waves from jeeps. F150 raptor owners used to wave to each other until the second gen came out, the it was hit or miss. But, when we're out in the woods everyone waves to each other regardless of what you are driving because we're out having fun and it also is a way to tell if someone is from out of the area(ie, berrypicker), because they generally don't wave. Let's you know who belongs and don't when you're territorial , lol.

I wave to anyone in a 2-door anything. The Jeep drivers mostly just look confused, but we stubby trucks gotta stick together!

I think one of the stickers I’ve seen like this and told the guy I loved it, was a pimped out Jeep with everything you’d want outback (clearly experienced) had everything in case of emergency type jeep.

His only sticker was “bronco recovery vehicle “ which made me chuckle 🤣

A good friend won an orange duck at an arcade while we were on vacation and gifted it to me for the Raptor. I put it on the dash that week and a couple of jeeps waved at us.

I always wave back if I can.
