LOL ... right

I flick a finger (the good one) .. or two, or maybe a whole hand to passer yotas but seems like most folk don't get it. The yota is one vehicle takn for granted by many.

HELL, theres like 2 or 3 MINT 80's pickups in town and i've waved multiple times to them all (all old effers, obvious original owners) and none wave back.. you'd think someone would keep their yota mint from the day they bought it would appreciate a wave from a fellow yota owner.. nope.. oh well

I typically wave to the classics and guys (or gals ofcoure) who have modified their yote's in a respectable manner.. ie i dont wave to the body lifted 35's or the bracket lifts or the beat to hell yotes. But thats me, seems the guys who have modified their rigs with a brain get my respect, maybe im just a dick

but generally people don't wave around here, its sad =(

That's my experience as well around here. I've learned to only wave at the trucks that are jacked up. At least I know they'll be looking at me when they drive by.

I blow my horn at them too, but if they're too close to me my horn actually pisses them off.

I notice that about yota drivers too. I actually wave at the decked out jeeps. They usually wave back. Fck em if they don't. same goes to the yota drivers that just stare at me when I wave at them.

There are so many Toy's out here that I'd have a sore arm if I waved at half of them. So I usually wave if they do it first. On the other hand I've had a few instances of a lifted Yota pulling up next to me on the highway and then slowing down to give my rig the "once over" and they always wave before speeding up again.

Yep you sure are.. So I take it that I don't have a brain because I used a 4" bracket lift for my IFS??

No Yota owners wave here. I usually give a small wave when i see a nice truck, but they give me the look of 'am i supposed to know you?' I had one yota guy in a nice lifted truck hang out his window to make sure i saw him wave. It was pretty funny.
When i was out at tuttle ORV park in kansas, there was a group of jeeps that came in and passed my friend I (who was in a Jeep Grand Cherokee) and i waved at them all, and they all glared at me, but waved at my friend.. A lot of jeep owners are pricks
