wave every time, the C5s dont wave back but all C4's and esp. C3 guys make an effort to wave back. There arent many vettes in SC.

Re: How often do you wave? (Reddog)
I wave each time I see another vette. Some times I get a wave, some times I just get a dumb look. I often wonder if those vette owners who don't wave, don't know the plan. I feel some might think they are too good to wave and others are glad to acknowledge a fellow vette owner.
I just drive on with a smile on my face because I know I'm happy to own a vette and be apart of the American dream.
As always

Re: How often do you wave? (Reddog)
i try to wave every chance i get. get about 75% response these days, but there are fewer and fewer Vettes on the road lately.
keep waving. people will eventually figure it out. if it wasn't for this forum, i'd probably be thinking "huh? why did that guy wave at me?"

I wave everytime that I see another vette. I would say about 30% of the time I get a wave back, and never from a woman.

Re: How often do you wave? (red-y)
I like comraderie in my hobby, every time I wave, only the C2 and C3 wave back. Sometime the C4's wave but never C5. I think we all should be close, after all, were would this forum be if we were not?

Yup, and I get the same response from both -- half wave, half don't. :cheers: :seeya

Re: How often do you wave? (Reddog)
i do it 90% of the time, just some times im not looking for other vette. but i get wave's from all vette's even C5 owners. some are just rude, it doesnt matter.. but i talk to a guy at the store today and he said i was the 1st vette owner that ever talk to him, he said he says hello or wave's and they act too good .. i know this cause i had a saleen and i got it too.. but not all vette owners are rude just a few and they make it hard and give vette owners a bad name.. but i try to wave to everyone even if they dont have vette. maybe they just love vette and dont have one yet or not driving thiers..
