save the wave
Hi all,back in the 70s i owned a corvette. It was customary to wave at another corvette owner if you pulled alongside one,or flash your headlights if one was coming in your direction. I think it would be a nice gesture if we all start that trend today. I do it now whenever I see another mustang owner. what do you guys and gals think about this?

Motorcyclists do the wave... well, not so much a wave as a 'hi' kind of hand signal. Mine's two fingers held out, for no reason than that's what I do... kinda a 'peace/victory' thing I guess... Much like Charlie Sheen, we're Winning because we're Riding.
No flashing of lights though. I see no problem with waving, but the reality is unless you can be seen in the car, waving is less effective than on a motorcycle.
But hey, I'll do it.

Got the devil horns from another GT owner this afternoon & waived to a Mom & her daughter this evening in a GT. I haven't seen so much comradery since I got my 'Stang a couple months ago.

The only "problem" I have with waving to other Mustangs is that there are so many of them around here. I could just about drive with my hand out the window. (Not saying that's a "bad" thing.) Also, many of them have tinted windows, so you can't tell if they're waving or not.
I have had a couple waves from others, and always return the favor.

There are too many Mustangs to try to wave. 95% of them aren't really enthusiasts to begin with, so you're more than likely going to get a wierd look.
If I see an obviously modded Mustang I might wave.
I'd probably develop severe arthritis of the wrist if I tried to wave at every Mustang I saw... Don't think the human body can handle that much repetition.

Back when I was in the Army, Mustang owners would always wave at one another. That was about 5 years ago. When I got out of the military I continued to give a wave at other Stangs, but everytime I did they looked at me like i was an idiot!
At first I thought it just might be the area I was in, but I have moved 3 times and each time is the same. I figure that either the military has that special bond, or that being friendly is an out dated concept.
