The Wave Is Still Alive

[Remo]

Went for a short drive today and I'm happy to report that all Corvette drivers were waving. No snobs. The wave appears to still be alive and well.
Remo:cool

Well then here you go Bob!

 

[Ezmunie]

I'm about to go for a cruise right now. I'll let you know how it is around here

I got the shaft from a C5 and a C3 bumper car. Oh well, at least I was waving.

 

[Vettefan87]

The last 5 or so vettes I have seen in mine I have all gotten waves to. One was a C3 the rest were C4's and C5's.

The wave seems to be dying down out this way. Too many newbie Corvette owners, I presume, who don't know the tradition.

 

[vetteboy86]

Its is the oddest thing. I've had some folks look at me and give me a wired look, like do I know that guy.

The recent couple don't even look in my direction. How can you not see a corvette coming the other direction :confused

I only passed two today, both C5's, and I got the "do I know you look" and the "no look at all".

The wave is very much alive here in the Northwest. I rarely pass a vette the doesnt exchange waves and there is a ton of Corvettes around here

Do we have anything in common :L

More so the newer vettes have drivers not versed in their duty to wave. I would say most it is their first vette.

I really got the "do I know you look" today... I forgot I was in the Explorer taking family to the airport.

'Cause they're too busy texting:bash.

I probably get waves 70% or more of the time in the DC area. Throw C6s out of the mix and it's more like 90%. Throw women out (no offense intended for those on this site) who must think I'm trying to flirt:dancenaughty and you're probably talking 95%.

No matter, I wave at 'em all.

No, I don't think so, you're alot younger than me.otfl

Man, I'm still trying to figure this one out ..... :confused

Coming back from our local Sunday evening "Car Show" at the local ice cream parlor.

Start heading down Rt. 12 and this guy in a Miata gives me .... "The Wave" .... clear as a bell.

I mean he may have been driving wifeys car and has a 67 big block in the garage so it's printed in the grey matter for him to wave .... I often resist when I'm driving my old Toyota pick-em-up but sometimes I slip and let one go .... especially if it's a real cool like an older "cream my jeans" type.

Only about 25% wave back when I'm driving the Vette soooooo ... but that just may be Noo-Joy-Z?

 

[vett boy]

He was givin' ya the finger five times

 

[jrose7004]

I took the Vette on a trip to the hardware store and didn't see any other Vettes while I was out!

 

[vetteboy86]

No, I don't think so, you're alot younger than me.otfl

Oddly enough, we have one more thing in common. Like my father, you were born in the year the first vette was produced, and I was born the only year since then they were not produced!!! Just something interesting

I have caught myself waving to several other nice muscle cars, and vettes too, when I am out tooling around in my Trans Am. I would say 50% of the time I get a thumbs up or something.

I did get something never before received. A guy in a Lexus, passenger, started clapping at me. I was driving my Trans Am. This was a first.
