My wife doesn't get it either. Ive had Vettes for years and the same thing happens. She said "Every car you buy becomes some unofficial club or something where you all wave or flash lights at each other!" I told her " Its not unofficial,thats just what we do when our wives are with us. When our girlfriends are with us, they flash the other drivers, so you wives better step it up." It was a quiet trip after that
I had a vette before my raptor and it was the same way. Always a nice wave or a light flash no matter the gen of vette it was. I think cars who carry this kind of culture with them are the best to be a part of.
