I wave. But a lot of people down here just think you are strange because you are waving to them. Like who the hell is this guy waving at me?? lol I dont care I still wave, and have gotten some waves back.

I always get "the look" and nod from other stangs here in the south.
If they're behind me they always catch up with me just to run beside me, its awesome! haha. It is an awesome feeling.

I'm another flasher / waver (yes I know that's open to interpretation but you know what I mean)....don't get too many responses unless it's another club car but the odd few wave or flash back. I get more responses when out in the vert than in the hatch though.

i get pretty excited when s197's acknowledge me here in st paul. i wave at every one of them and they are always too focused on the road to show me any love..

I actually got a thumbs up from a fellow black s197'er today. Usually when I look it's someone not paying attention.

OMG OMG OMG it was heart tingling excitement.

We were driving towards each other for a good 4 seconds. They flashed their lights real quick, and i flashed back immediately! It was my first time ever, in 6 months of ownership, of ever being acknowledged by another Mustang! It was wonderful! It was tingling and and all fuzzy.

Here in Tucson, AZ people are depressed, anti-social creepy people. The truth hurts. This was certainly an awesome moment.

They probably just moved here from the midwest or something...
Lol, I still can't believe I haven't seen you on the road here in Tucson, I usually give all Stangs a nod and the modded ones sometimes a thumbs up, if I'm paying attention. I get a fair amount of response too so I'm not sure where you're getting the depressed creepy vibe from, have you been driving downtown too often?? It is definitely an awesome warm fuzzy gratifying moment of the shared Mustang passion! [sm=icon_ladiesman.gif]

Around here, I usually wave and get a waves from foxes, SN-95's, S197 V6's and V8's. Cobra(termie) guys usually don't acknowledge. Shelby guys have been friendly though.

I like to give the thumbs-up at the last possible moment. You either get the startled look and a quick try at a response, or you get nothing, and can imagine everyone replies but it's too late to see.
