I always try to wave. But must admit I miss a few here and there. Sometimes I just don't see them or it's just too late. For those that I missed.... this is for you

Most wave back, others don't have a clue. What a shame that they live such a pathetic life that they can't return a friendly wave. Oh well, I'll wave anyways!

Well this actually is a good point. Not everyone is scanning oncoming traffic for other kindred vehicles. I know I am guilty of that myself, and will sometimes miss a vette here and there. I'm just looking at something else and don't see 'em coming.......

I'll wave if I see a vette. I've been known to wave when I see a vette and I'm driving a non-vette

Actually I believe I get quite a few waves from not-vette drivers, but I probably miss most of them. Usually it is Connie telling me that someone waved at us while we are out driving. I guess I am mostly watching the scenery or the road..........

I've had my C6 for about three months now and notice that more people don't wave than do wave. I always try to wave but I'm not always consistent. Plus, it's hard to get my wave up when I'm busy admiring the other 'Vette...

Wave, or don't wave... Getting peeved because your wave is not returned seems like rather poor form to me. I wave because I want to, not because I expect (or demand) to have my wave returned.

So, if you see me ('07 C6 Monterey Red Coupe) and I don't wave please don't take it personally. If you look in your mirror I'll probably be waving. I call it a delayed wave, because I am not always paying attention.

I guess I have the illusion that everyone that owns a Vette Relishes All Aspects of owning one. By this I mean... being a part of a brother/sisterhood and acknowledging it with a simple freindly . Belonging to a "club" that not many will ever get a chance to and can only dream about . Owning a Vette has been a dream come true for me, as i'm sure it was the dream for others before me, so I try to enjoy all that comes with it.
Waving isn't just a vette thing (as mentioned earlier), but there is an un written rule to extend the courtesy of a wave to other Vetters.
Poor form ... Yea, on his part! He's obviously too busy being a
Fg prick to bring himself Down to my level (obviously "White Trash") and extend me some Fg courtesy!

Where's my medication....
