Save the wave
I am on a business trip in southern Alabama just east of Mobile. I was driving between Daphne, Fairhope, and Foley today. Must have past at least 5 Corvettes. Not a single wave returned. We're losing the wave folks.

I always wave, but only get about 50% return rate. It's probably the damn cell phones.

Although it's not a good sign when your wife congratulates you because someone finally waved back.

I travel alot from North to South for work and have seen the Vette's starting to come out of hibernation. I never get a wave returned, but of course I am waving from my F150. Sure that has something to do with it, but it sure seems like there are alot of snobs out there. I try to wave or give a thumbs up to anyone driving a really cool car. Most non-Vette drivers usually wave back. I'm about done with this wave thing!
Its still alive and well.

Some days that's the way it goes. I missed a nice looking C5 today...blue with stripes...I caught his wave but I doubt he saw my belated response (I guess my mind was elsewhere). I have to do penance and do extra waves tomorrow.

Apparently, in Arizona, everyone is too cool to wave.
I've received 1...yes 1 wave since I've been out here.
A gentleman in a VY z06 pulled up right next to me on the 101 (I still had the LMB C6 at the time). I waved and he gave me this "oh yeah you think?" type look.
