Default Save The Wave!!!!

I know there are many comments on the forum about other Vettes owners not waving, but I have to tell that approx 9 out of 10 give me the wave. Cool story tonight, nice afternoon in WNY and I am out for a brief cruise when I am in a stretch that I can see a C3 ahead and I approach him at the light and follow him a couple of miles and when I pull off he waves backwards as I peel off! The great news is that the wave still lives!!!!

Happy Driving!!!

I think it is great you have fellow owners that wave back to you. I was coming home today and passed two corvettes. I waved and to my surprise didn’t get a wave back. Isn’t it common courtesy if you see someone wave to wave back.

I let my Dad drive my Vette on our way to lunch and another Vette owner on the otherside of the road coming towards us waved, I waved back from the passenger seat, force of habit but my Dad didn't wave, so had to tell him when he see's another Vette, give em a wave, their friendly people.
