I got tired of anything with a Jeep in the front, it's just not feasible here. University town so there are stock JKUs and the like all over the place with clueless owners.

I'll wave back or to anything offroad modified. There are a couple of nice guys with a Land Rover and 4Runner kicking around.

What do you got against 35s? Lol I wave at any modified jeep that looks like the owner put their own blood sweat and beers into it with their own hard earned money. I shake my head in disapproval at any newer jeep or jeeps that look like some rich wanna be spent 10,000 to have someone else put bushwackers and kc lights on it. And I just flip off hummers.

I wave to any built Cherokee (XJ, MJ, or ZJ, I don't discriminate!) and if a stocker or wrangler guy waves at me, I'll wave back. I get quite a few waves around here. Except some people look at me like I'm challenged when I wave to them.

Never was waved at in my stock XJ and it will be interesting to see if anyone does after next week when the new one is finished. These things are just cheap transportation to most people who own them and I think most of the guys who are into Jeeps know that.

Are they rare there or have they survived the years? It's surprising to see a YJ in these parts

That's why it's called the Jeep wave and not the wrangler wave.... Or cherokee wave.... Jeep wave.

You need to come over the bridge more often lol. There are tons of YJ here in NY. They get driven until the frame rusts out. Not many in the junkyards. When they show up, they get stripped down to the tub very quickly. YJs still hold there value here even rusted ones go for $3k.

Fort Drum, NY a few miles north of Watertown.

No one else has waved at me lately. I am getting more people looking at it since I painted it green. If that counts lol.

I think he meant more 35" Nittos on Rockstar rims and other popular mallcrawler crap everyone and their brother slaps on JKs more so than 35s in general.
