Is there some sort of “Bronco Wave” similar to Jeep?

I’m new to the Bronco community and I was just wondering if there is an acknowledgement of some sort.

Sure for Gen 1’s. It’s so rare to see another early Bronco when you are driving your early Bronco that both are usually frantically waving, honking horns and flashing lights to get the other’s attention! LOL

For Gen 2’s it a more subtle wave or nod that says “We really know we’re the coolest even if the Gen 1 folks don’t think so.”

For Gens 3-5, not so much.

That's funny! I have had vintage Porsches and a new 996 Porsche. The vintage crowd will flash lights to each other passing by but new owners in new cars don't get the community thing.

I give everyone the BMW wave. :ROFLMAO: not so much a wave, as a one finger salute. :p

I will definitely be waving when I see other Broncos on the road!
I know some Jeep people who were hating on the new Bronco before any specs, images or reviews were available.
Fear their status has been diminished in some way or their tribe is under siege.
I like both brands but I don't expect most Jeeps will acknowledge Broncos on the road.

I'll wave to the Jeepers just to annoy them.
A lot of people are confused about the Bronco and are saying crazy things.
They don't understand the vehicle class.
They don't know the difference between a Jeep and a Bronco.
They say it looks like a Wrangler
They say it looks like a toy.

I've had Jeeps, the only one that turns me is the CJ.Vintage CJs are not practical for everyday use.
I've always wanted a Bronco.

I've always done what I wanted and never cared what anyone else thought.

I’m not much of a waver. I’d probably return one.

I drive a very customized f-150 where everyone in my county knows who I am, I get waved at quite a lot, with the bronco I think we should either go either over the top or just simple nod

I'll do the head nod. Unless it's actually someone I know.

We know we are better than the jeep community so we just nod instead of waving like a pre-pubescent child.

I'm good with the stare and nod - that's what I do when I see another old Toyota Pickup or even 4-Runner

LOL, How do you think I feel?!? I get comments all the time in my FJ40, and 9 times out of 10 it's "Nice Jeep!"
I cringe every time . . .

I enjoyed my Jeeps, but I wouldn't have confused them with the classics.

I think a subtle nod has more moxie. Can we go with that?

I’m down with giving a hat tip... don’t know about full out wave.

I wave, not out the window wave, just through the windshield wave
