I finally solved the Jeep Wave mystery

[SargeDiesel]

No shade, I personally would love a diesel but this forum and Stellantis has scared me away from them with the possibility of driving a ticking time bomb.

Understand completely...
But keep in mind, people tend to come to these forums to bitch and share dume and glume... when it comes to "failure" type topics.
From my understanding, the failures are less than 1%... not really taking a chance in my opinion but I will say, it would suck if you were part of that 1%.

I admit I have the decal but haven't put it on the mirror and doubt I ever will. I am not opposed to waving but it's been about 27 years since my last Jeep and I'm a bit out of practice when it comes to situational awareness to other Jeeps.

Turn signals - meh. Former LEO so turn signals are always noticed by me but I don't use them when I'm in a "turn only" lane and they are really only necessary when the actions of your vehicle are gong to affect the actions of others. Better explanation is this - if you are the only car on the road a turn signal is not needed. and is only necessary when your actions as a driver will affect traffic around you. At least this was the law in the state I worked in.
