[smlobx]

I was reading the online car magazine from Hagerty’s and came across an article on how “Ducking” started.

Wow, thanks for posting this. Best history of this I have seen!

Another tradition takes precedence, and it always will.
This why I wave.

Am I missing something, or did the jeep wave start because of V-E Day?

Only issue with the article is ducking has been going on longer than 2020

That was my question, I thought it was an older thing. Your wink says something, so I may just be oblivious here

My wife has been getting ducks on her wrangler since 2018. I don’t think that story is right.

I've seen ducks now in broncos, toyotas, Subaru's...and the list goes on and on. Has completely lost any semblance of being a jeep thing. Stop with the ridiculous ducks, and stick to the wave as it should be!

Ducking stupid….

I was ducked 9 times at the local Jeep Fest 2 weeks ago. Yesterday, I was ducked at a wine tasting fest. I've ducked over a 100 so far. I'm on my 3rd box of 50.

I've been ducked one time. That was just days after I put new AT tires (factory wheels) on my four year old stock Overland.

It was a cute story so I wasn't trying to throw shade on it, but like where the name Jeep came from or the origin of the Wave, there are facts, legends and myths, but they all make for great stories.

My wife just traded her Wrangler in for the Grand Cherokee L for our growing family, and already misses the ducking and waves.

Guess that is another reason to keep putting miles on the JT.
