So I’m new to raptor ownership and I love this thing. 2600 miles in and I’m all giddy with lights, AFE intake, Awe exhaust, JB4 piggyback, 2 alpine 10’s on 1200watts. All the fun stuff.

Today I realized that we as raptor owners use the same wave that Jeep owners use... Wait what??

Yeah we use the same wave. Some dude in a raptor did the Jeep waive at me the other day. Since then I’ve been deep in thought about this. Noticing that I was mentally anguished by the lack of cool wave that should be associated with such a unique truck and unique cadre of owners, it hit me.

Definition of Raptor: a bird of prey, e.g., an eagle, hawk, falcon, or owl.

ok basically a bird.

I Propose the new Raptor wave is the flipping of such bird to fellow raptor owners.

Sorry to the few out there I have tried it on already. A they were probably like what an ******* or **** that guy. Simply just trying to start a movement. Can we all agree!?!

Oh, that's ok. You're from that state where "that school up north" is located. Go Bucks!

I was filling up at Costco the other day when a Gen 1 Raptor pulled up to the pump beside me. Gave a thumbs up followed by saying nice looking Raptor. Gave me a crappy look and went on about his business. Don’t see this guy ever given any kind of wave except the one finger wave.

Interesting subject.

When I was riding my HD Low rider it was usually a low hands down wave.

When riding my Suzuki GSXR it was a nod of the helmet.

Cruising in my Jeep it was a wave or a hand on the steering wheel at 12:00 wave.

When out blasting on the water it was a Shaka wave. Thumb and Pinky

Some people do it, some people don`t

I`m still confused, I guess there are brothers in everything from the military to skateboarders

Personally I would get a much bigger smile out of being flipped off and flipping someone off back at the same time every time we saw one another. Please vote above
