Jeep owners are the best at waving at each other.
Ever since I got mine in 99 I got on the jeep forums and they have a saying
"it's a jeep thing" and they all wave at each other.

Here in Myrtle Beach, I have only seen 2 other evos.
[bone stock] and both with out of state tags.
And all they wanted to do was race me.
they lost badly btw.. lol

I have yet to see another person wave at me nicely..
personally I could care less if they do but i do anyways and just smile.

It's like 50/50 for me, really. Some Evo guys respond with a wave right away or even initiate it, but I've had a few just give me a hard-*** look after I waved. I really don't get it. It's like, I'm driving an Evo too, dip****. You aren't impressing anyone.

Oh, and I had an STi flash his high beams at me a few days after I got the car. Made me pretty happy.

what's funny about this is whenever I see a DSM I still turn my head and check it out. I usually don't flash them or wave though b/c I figure they will be like 'why the hell is that guy waving at me' I can't tell them while driving my Evo that I have an eclipse too if they're going the other way

I've gotten the wave from a few STI guys. I wave in response, but usually don't wave first to them. Happened once and the fiance was like "who was that" I told her I didn't know, it was just a car thing, and she laughed at me

I did that once with my wife in the car, except i was driving my vette, she gave me same response except now when we are driving in her XTerra she waves at all Xterra peeps and gives me that exact response, "It's a car thing"

I haven't come across too many Evos in my area, but I try to wave or nod to the few I do see. I have had WRX owners also wave, and I wave back if I see them in time.

Most of the EVO owners I see are when I'm NOT in mine! I rarely see anybody when I'm in mine.

Same boat as both you guys. The wife totally mocks me for acknowledging other EVO's. I tried to tell her, that with this car, you know you have something in common with the other driver even though you've never actually met them. That doesn't hold true for a Focus or Kia or <insert generic car name here> and I think that's the difference. There's already a bond there. She doesn't get it.

Perhaps we should all start a group,

"My Wife Doesn't Understand My Evo Support Group for Men"

or MWDUMESGFM
