    guarenteeing the LR wave.

    Today I tried an experiment. I did the LR wave thing.. heres the response count

    freelanders (I+II) 4 waved at 4 replies
    Sheds on wheels (all series county/deefers) 15 waved at 15 replies
    discos (all varients) 5 waved at 5 replies
    rangies 3 waved at and 3 replies.

    the secret. Drive a Bushmaster.

    I was getting waves back from people I wasnt even waving at and that was just the lifting of the index and middle finger from the steering wheel wave.

    Id love to see the end result of waving from the front gun cupola. I reckon It'd start a mexican wave in the traffic.

    Wow, I waved at a black deefer extreme on the gt western highway at Kingswood/Penriff on thursday arvo and didn't get a wave back.

    Maybe i need to upgrade from corolla to bushmaster?

    I was involved in a Rangie "stare-off" the other day.

    I drove past a very similar 2 door Rangie, same colour (a bit nicer ). I looked at it the whole time i drove past, while the owner stood in the driveway and watched mine go past.

    Probably both thinking "mines better"

    Would love to know if he's on this site. Lives on a certain busy side street between Mt. Dandy Rd and Maroondah Hwy... anyone?

    no, for traffic negotiating you need to tick the dealers optional extras boxed labled F89, Mag 56 and 66mmLAW and this is Australia not America.

    Well no wonder!
    The poor buggers are waving, hoping you will see them and not drive over them

    They are an "Imposing" beast, to say the least
