How enthusiastically do you wave?

I have always waved to every LR. Recently I am wondering why I bother though.

Just got back from a 2 week trip to Broken Hill - Cameron Corner - Bourke loop. When touring outback you wave to all other travelers and 95% wave back. I gave a specially big wave to other Land Rovers, but hardly got a wave. I think from memory, 1 defender, 1 series, 2 discovery (1 or 2). Did not get a single wave back from the Discovery 3/4 drivers or any of the few Range Rover / RR Sport drivers. Do not remember seeing any RR Vogue, or FL or Evoque.

In total it would have been 1 in 10 who waved back. Oh, I did get one guy in a Discovery 2 who I thought was going to wave but was just picking his nose...

I am seriously wondering why I bother. Are Land Rover owners really getting that rude? Is the type of person who buys a Land Rover changing?

I don't bother waving anymore........if another driver Landy or other raises there finger and hand I will do the same.

That could be you I wave to occationally on Andrews Rd...:D

I had quite a few waves here in Melb over the weekend :D

Had a guy in a black RR staring me down as he went around the corner in front of me,, I waved,, I think it took him by surprise :D

Apologies to the guy who waved at me on a corner out near Tenterfield somewhere the other day. You came round the corner so fast and were so quick with the wave that you were gone before I had time to react.
