Immature Bronco “Adults” @ Moab

[Jaxmax]

Don’t shoot me but the new real Bronco might get a wave from me offroad, looks to be capable ,only real thing out there similar to Jeep in same price range and has a lot of cool ideas in it’s build. Two like minded people enjoying the outdoors passing offroad can and should wave or nod! ....Jack

That's do do. I'm on my 5th Jeep and it's a JT because it made sense to keep my work boots and tools out of the passenger space.
I'm on my 4th Harley and we wave to all riders even if their motorcycle was put together with chop sticks.
As for Broncos, well they aren't Jeeps so no wave. Have a good day

Just because it doesn't happen to you or you don't do it doesn't mean it doesn't happen. Sorry to say it does.

I waved at a guy driving a wrangler today. He stared right at me, just smirked and looked away. Douche...

Speaking of the Jeep wave, NONE in Moab. Was there for a week and not one wave back and I was in a highly modified rig.

Compare that to Bantam Jeep Fest 2019 (2020 cancelled due to covid). I had tennis elbow from three days of returning Jeep waves.

Seems to be a big thing back east, not so much here in the west.

I've heard Wrangler drivers giving Gladiator drivers the finger. Happens with m/c riders too. Harley riders flipping off import riders. Assholes are not brand specific.

Wrangler drivers giving JT drivers the finger sounds like jealousy to me.

I have noticed a lot more waves from Jeeps now that my Gladiator has a 3.5" lift with 37 inch tires. I noticed less waves from built Jeeps when my Gladiator was Stock.
Of course, the best wave is always from another Gladiator.

So here is what I notice more often on the western side of the country. A stock Jeep (I refer to Jeep as CJ, Wrangler, Gladiator) drives past a lifted one and waves, the lifted one doesn't wave back, guessing they think the stock Jeep doesn't meet their standards. Stock Jeep waves at stock Jeep, usually gets a wave back. Modified Jeep to modified Jeep usually gets a wave back.

I'm old school. The Jeep wave in the 60s and 70s was CJ to CJ. Just like the wave for the VW Beetle and the old "hippie" vans. I don't wave at Cherokees, Grand Cherokees, Compass or Renegades. I will however wave at classic FSJs, Jeepsters, and 50's and 60s Jeeps of most any type. The modern grocery getters/GenX Jeeps, no so much or should I say not at all.

I just checked in on the Bronco forum and they are one group of angry people.

I guess I would be too if the Gladiator release had been moved back as many times as the Bronco has.

I think they are just mad that they were sold macho but got soccer mom chic

Thank you Sir. I too served and fought for this country and truly believe that no one person, no single ideology, and no generation of people is stronger than the American Constitution. I bought my first Jeep in August 2020 amid the pandemic, and while I was making the purchase I reminded myself that the damn mask I was wearing was not going to be covering my face when I got to the desert and mountains, and the lonely shores where no other person could interfere with me and my wife finally breathing freely the air God provides. Oh, that includes Atticus..... Our protector and friend.

Sadly, us 'patriots' aren't fighting hard enough.

In Colorado Springs, almost every Jeep driver waves at me when I'm in my JT. And if I wave first, they almost always wave back.

Haven't seen an new Broncos in the wild. But we do have a lot of Gen I and Gen 2 Broncos in Colorado and they seem like a good bunch here.

We would be lucky if it was only 21%, I believe that was the number in late September to early October, but by the close of the year we were closer to 35% of all US Dollars ever printed. Unfortunately we are on track to pass that number this year.

A lot of regular people are excited about the “value” of their homes and assets going up, when more likely it is the dollar that is losing its value at a rapid pace.

Great post. And dont worry. Its coming.

HA this is so true, I drove through Moab on Sunday, and not one wave from another Jeeper. A Bestop employee was super friendly and talkative at a gas station there.

No, I think you are entirely correct. I couldnt find readily the chart in the 30’s and didnt want to spend any more time looking...and if people dont see a problem with 21%, i doubt 35% will sway them.

My biggest problem is “what do i do about it”? Short of owning a bunch of BTC i dont know what the answer is, and i dont have the income to buy a bunch of btc’s.

How about a wave to the new electric Hummer?

If you waved at every Jeep in Moab you'd never touch the steering wheel. Too many to bother. Same way in CO compared to the east coast.
