No Wave
Well, I was merging onto 49South today off of I20 Westbound. Apparently another car...also arctic white...also with comp-gray rims...Grand Sport..was merging 49South off of I20 Eastbound. We were door-to-door. Waved at the guy driving. Just got a "WTF!?" look from the old guy instead.
Nonplussed.
Might as well make this thread worth the click. I need a better camera, though.

Sorry, didn't realize others whined as much as I did. Meh. Still, not a single 'vette owner has waved back at me. Have waved at half a dozen of them. I did get the nod from a Dodge 3500 driver, though! Few women in Benz's made it a point to shake their hair at me and stick their snouts in the air. Otherwise, ignored, lol.
On the flip side, I am glad this car doesn't get that much attention. I bought it for what it was, and am not really a huge social creature outside my job of the internet.

I have yet to have somebody not wave at me. So far if they see me I get a wave. I have only had my vette one summer but so far so good. I've gotten waves most of the time in my TA also the 5 years I owned it. Well if I see you I'll give you a big old

Honestly, I make it a habit to wave at other vette owners as much as I can however I have to admit if I was buzzing along minding my own business and another vette was suddenly door to door with me waving I'd be wondering if the other driver was pissed / having a road rage moment where perhaps I accidentally cut in front of him or maybe unintentionally pissed him off somehow. I'd probably have the WTF look on my face as well.
In defense of the other driver, you have to put yourself in his position verses just assuming he was blowing you off.
On the other hand, maybe he was blowing you off.
