hahah ^ ^ ^, yeah thats how i feel when they give me a strange look instead of returning my wave. but jeeps are infamous for the wave and return wave thing.

 

this is the truth

I used to wave when riding my motorcycle -- no more, worst than NY

 

No different here in Cali.
Yeah, they'll just look and probably say, "WTH is he waving at???"

People drive with their horse-blinds on or yapping on their cell phone.
The LS owners here are obviously in their senior years so I don't bother waving also.

 

Same here in philly

 

You got that right. LOL I've been traveling to South Florida about 18 times per year for the past couple of years. My mental image of a classic South Florida driver is a single-occupant vehicle driving in the HOV lane, suddenly swerving across 5 lanes of traffic at the last second to hit the exit, cutting off 3 or 4 cars in the process and causing them to get on their horns, then shooting the bird out his window to all the drivers he cut off. Nice.

 

I voted no b/c most of the people I have seen driving LS430's are in their golden years, and if they saw me waving they would think i'm some nut.

 

people's behavior here in the nyc metro area was the model for which other metro areas strived to be when it came to being unfriendly... nobody gives a crap about anyone else on the road but themselves... it's quite discouraging... even worse on the subways in rush hour... i've lived here all my life and am ready to move my family to somewhere more civilized... any suggestions?

oh and i voted no, but want to wave...

 

people waved and gave thumbs up to me all the time, in my older Gs400 and now isf. Maybe in delaware people are nicer...lol .
well i do the same if i see a nice car, dont matter what brand..now if i am in NYc i wouldnt do it. I would be thinking how to cut off that SOB in front me ,...lol

 

everytime i go to nyc, upper jersey, i hate it. i get angry stressed out and constantly worry about people hitting my car, every single pothole bothers me..its like someone hitting me in the head constantly....crazy my in laws are there and i when ever i go there, i park my car in their garage and get their suv out..lol

 

We'll let you move to South with us if you'll be nice.

Seriously, all my life I've heard "northerners" talk down about the south, etc. Then about 20 years ago I started traveling all over the U.S. (and Europe) for work, working with and getting to know people there and getting a feel for how life really is there (as opposed to just going to visit the tourist traps, which is what MOST travelers do). I think I got a pretty good view of how things are in various states and countries. All things considered, you can't beat the southern United States of America as a place to live, raise a family, and enjoy life, IMO. (But I'm thrilled for people to disagree and stay the hell out! )

 

deal! can you get me an IT job that pays more than $90k...

 

I'm generally nice to other vehicles and make comments to them when it warrants it. I had a nice short chat with a guy at the light in his BMW Z8, nice guy very cool. Another time, a brand new Ferrari F460 was next to me and I commented nice car, he just looked at me and looked away, what an a-hole snob.

May be we need to have ClubLexus stickers on our cars so we know to wave

 

I'd like to wave but agree with what a prior post said about people being too distracted with cell phones to notice.

Move to MN, it's great here!

 

werd, i gave a nod to a new s6 on the way home today and not only did the driver (father looking) turn his head and act like he didn't see me when they were clearly looking right at me but the son started to laugh and then they both started talking... hopefully they were talking about how the son will never be able to ride around in a car half as cool as ours and better start saving for his civic now but yeah a lot of car snobs out there, and don't get me wrong i may be car snobbish but i do appreciate the fellow car enthusiast and those are the ones that will return the wave or nod.

 

I would never wave to anyone else driving something I was not driving. I wave to Integra only the same gen. as me. I use to wave to other '92-'95 Civics. I would not wave to a S550 if I'm in my LS430, it's just not right.

On the point of LS drivers, all those old folks need BOTH HANDS on the wheel, so if we wave and they start taking their hands off the wheel, they might swerve off the road and start injuring some trees and poles. I'd say keep the old folks to themselves and we can start waving in another 10 years after they've moved on to their Buicks.
