    Hey guys! I was thinking and we should take some of the “exclusivity” away from jeep owners and get rid of some of their ego. I propose we start a 4runner wave which would be done with holding 4 fingers up as a wave to signify well a 4runner. Let me know what you guys think especially if it’s dumb.

    How about we don't. After 31 years with the Jeep crowd, the wave is lame.

    funny how this type of thread comes up every now and then. but hows about 'no" . About every 5th car I see is a 4Runner...we'd be waving all the time.

    Actually when I see another 4 runner I’m like “Ono, they found me”

    Every time I have tried this, they very rarely wave back! A lot of the times it's a chick driving and they never care to look my way haha.

    realized I had a typo.

    Sorry. I work in St. Louis. If I make any sort of "threatening" gesture, such as a wave, odds are I will get shot at.

    Take the Jeep owners down a notch by flexing your rear window as you drive past.

    Why you so concerned with ego of JEEP owners? It's people being friendly. Lol

    4Runners and Tacomas have never had a wave. Both platforms have always had “the stare.” Don’t mess with the stare.

    Welcome to the forum, @11runner !

    The funny thing is, I think I get waved at by more Jeeps than 4Runners. Although, I got a very enthusiastic wave and a nice smile from a girl in a nice 5th gen last Thursday!

    Lol! I did pretty good in the late 90's! :rofl:

    She looked cute, though!

    IDK what was going on that day, but I had stopped by my Dad's earlier and a good looking gal walking a dog complimented the 4Runner! I was kinda surprised, so I'm pretty sure I replied with something really awkward and dumb. :anonymous:

    Those Jeep owners aren't doing any sort of "wave."

    What they are actually doing is holding their hands out looking for extra money so they can pay for all the repairs they need to do! lol

    Usually when I wave I get a bunch of middle fingers back. Or racist trail riders completely ignore you :bananadead:
