Is there or should we create a Scout wave?

The motorcycle wave is well known and pretty cool. What do you all think of coming up with a Scout wave that we can give each other when we cross on the road, whether that's an IH Scout to Scout EV or IH to IH or EV to EV?

Or is there one and I'm ignorant?

NOPE. My daughter hates the Bronco wave. Scout was the original-let them(keep/Bronco/defender) all bow to us when they pass 😀

Like this but with a double flutter fly shake in the middle and a spin before the money thumbs 😀

When I see anything international running by its usually a "farmer wave" but that probably has to do with them all being tractors lol.

And the Bronco wave is all in response to the Jeep wave. No bullshit, that's a thing. And you should see the envy Cherokees, Compasses, Renegades have for the Wrangler folks...

Then the Bronco came back out and they started doing the "Bronco wave" like they invented it. And then they started, literally, "Buck Buck Bronco" in response to the, yet again, OG "Duck Duck Jeep".

It's honestly sad and I don't want to see Scout go down that road. It's sad.

When I was in my Scouts and saw another Scout we gave a 2 finger Scout wave of the hand and a nod. It was about comradery and respect.

I had an older Jepp and there was something off about waving to the 2wd soccer mom driving her 2020 Jeep Wrangler Sahara as if we are in the same club. But that's really on Jeep as much as anything.

I don't know who started the wave thing, probably bikers, but maybe we just give a 1 finger salute to jeeps and broncos instead 🤣

Yeah, not sure about the rest here, but I'm tired of Bronco owners waving to me thinking my Scout is a Bronco!

Supposedly the Jeep Wave started after WWII, when GIs would get a Jeep for civilian use. But it was primarily the old vets that liked them, bought them and drove them. So when they saw each other they gave themselves not only a wave, but the "V" for victory.

That's always the story I've been told.

I have an idea for the wave. The Boy Scouts salute is 3 middle fingers up and Thumb in. Our Scout wave/salute could be 4 fingers up and thumb in.
