    Re: do you do the wave?

    Always when in the bird - classic or new. Most classic owners wave back, '02 - '05 owners - 50/50

      Re: do you do the wave?

      Don't see many around here, but when I do, I wave... at all 'birds. Got a nice thumbs-up from an older gentleman driving a classic red t-bird, sans top, about a week ago; returned the thumb, of course. A big wave and a smile from a couple driving a new black bird near my neighborhood the same day. We were driving opposite directions, so by the time I turned around to stalk them, they were gone. Must improve my stalking skills! Pulled up at a stop light yesterday, next to a kid driving a Thunderbird LX (~1990). Gave him a wave when he looked, but he just looked at us like we were crazy!

      We get often get a thumbs-up or a wave from pedestrians too... always returned with a smile.

        YOU BET...wave, grin, thumbs up, stalk, chase...pretty embarrasing to my co-pilots initially, but most have succumbed to my obsession, and join right in!

            I wave but usually don't receive the same-- perhaps D.C. traffic has ticked them off too much. Such a shame.

              Yes I do, Nancy doesn't always, but I do.

              And now I've got my TBN cards, to leave!

                I waved once, left hand thrust upward and outward with the right hand in a death grip mode on the old steering apparatus. I was promptly struck by a red headed woodpecker. Knocked him senseless and bored a hole in my left mitt. He must have mistaken the PCR for some sort of low lying tree. Naw...this did not really happen. I wave to any two seat Bird, any four seater who waves and other people who care to wave while on weekend furloughs.

                        I usually flash the high beams and/or wave.

                          I must have just missed you. I was on the parkway today about 10:30 am and saw a torch red beauty. I gave them a big wave, they looked at me like I was from Mars. That's how it goes some times. Better luck next time.

                              How can you not wave? It's like saying . . ."me too, me too!"

                                Two bad waving experiences this week.

                                On Rte 128 I saw a MSG w/ brown interior in my rearview mirror so I slowed down till he caught up with me and then rode along side him. For 5 minutes he talked on his cellphone and only looked straight ahead while I rode right next to him. I finally took off and let him eat my dust.

                                Near my home today spotted a red 05 with sand interior at a 4 way stop. She gave me the confused--do I know you?--and if I don't why are you waving at me?--look.

                                Some people just don't know, or don't appreciate, what they've got.
