    I see motorcycle riders greet each other with the above hand gesture…….

    I propose for 4Runner drivers to greet each other with the below 4R clan sign…..Just a thought….

    When I first got my motorcycle I was so excited to wave.

    Now I wish it wasn't a thing. I just want to enjoy my ride without being like, "Hey we both bought a thing!".

    I wave at other 4Runners & Tacomas. No secret wave, just a nice "how ya doin'" wave, surprisingly, a pretty fair portion wave back. It's kind of like they thought about waving at us, but were waiting to see if we would wave 1st. I think around Atlanta we had the most waves from 4Runners. We live in a very rural setting, so when we meet cars/tucks we all wave at each other, very friendly Wisconsin community.

    When I moved from the city out to a rural area, I was a little surprised when all of the neighbors would wave. It's nice living somewhere that people acknowledge each other.

    On the flip-side, I'm camping this weekend. Crossed paths with a guy this morning walking to the restroom, and said "good morning." Guy said nothing and didn't even look at me. o_O

    I wave at other 4Runners about half of the time. No special sign language.
