Default The Wave Lives!!!!!!!!!!!

So Im driving home from the Gym tonight & I see this Red C5 all done up really looking great on the 215 beltway here in Vegas. I pull in back of him & then slowly pull along side in the left lane, I look over & its an older gent about 75 years Old. He had his squeeze in the passenger seat, they were grooving.
He did not see me at this point so I pulled ahead about 10 car lengths & he then saw BlueJet. He then pulls along side of me & gives a big smile & a wave & thumbs up !!!! Very Cool.
His squeeze was even into it she smiled .

Drove for over two hours today in NJ and didn't even see a Vette to wave to!

For a car that has been in production for over 50 years, Vettes sure are few and far between.

Went to a vette show today and saw about 4 or 5 vettes on the road (all different years) and all waved. Well, one of them nodded with a smile, but I'll count that as a wave!
