    Being a fairly new to Tundra owner for a few months now, I had been waving to other Tundra drivers but I wasn't getting any waves back so I stopped.
    Today, for the very first time as I was driving down the road, an older (2nd. Gen maybe gray or black or blue?) Tundra's driver waved.
    But sadly I saw it too late as I had not anticipated it so I flew by, no wave from me.
    I feel so horrible!
    So, if the person who was driving north on Bear Road Liverpool, NY today around 3:15 pm is on this site, I apologize to you.
    That does it, I'm starting up again, I promise!
    See you on the road!

    I feel your pain. I used to do it and no one waved back :(
    It's almost if you don't belong on this forum you don't notice other BA tundras on the road.
    I stopped waving and usually wait to see if they wave at me first.

    I waved and cracked my drivers side window with the hyperbaric. She was jogging down the sidewalk and didn’t wave back either. Wonder why?

    In general and all kidding aside, I try to wave at as many people as possible in my neighborhood. Many do not wave back. Not sure if the can see do to reflection? Maybe bad eye sight? Or, just not used to other people being friendly.

    On the same note, I’ll say hi or strike up convo at the grocery store and people look at me like I have three heads. Not sure whats going on?

    Lots of people on meds? Mind stuck on fakebook mode? Computer head?

    Not sure, but I still try to be nice and out going. Sometimes people are so locked in their mind, if you break the social media lock they open up and are quite friendly in return. Its the intial engagement that is whats so weird compared to the ‘old days’.

    I don't wave at the 2nd or 3rd gen guys. That's like if you ride a Harley you don't hang a peace sign at street bikes.

    Sunnier has a 1st gen now, welcome to the hood.

    I think people are so used to being in their little bubble they dont know how to react to friendly banter. Most that ive engaged are so happy i cant get em to shut up. And there are those that shrug and mope along...depends on their mood at the moment..
