    Well....Ive been driving my taco for a while, I noticed everywhere I look I see other really nice tacos, so I just started doing a little what's up kinda wave to the other taco drivers, you know kinda like the bikers do the Peace sign...wonder what yall think. Should this be a thing? Or has it already been a thing?

    I heard it was a thing on some other threads on here. And I got a few waves from jeeps and other tacos, but I also get waves from Chevys and fords too. I guess i just live in a friendly town.

    If we do start an official wave, then my vote goes to the "shocker" two in the pink, one in the stink!

    Nobody around here waves in their Tacoma. It sucks. I gaze at every Tacoma hoping to exchange waves or nods but it very very rarely happens.

    Although there is an old man that lives near me in a green bone stock Tacoma that has flashed his lights on me twice, so at least there's him, and me.. That's about it.

    Harley's have been around for over a 100 years, Jeeps (All Wrangler styles) since the 40's, 'Vettes since '53 - Tacoma's only since '94 - a relatively current marque in terms of historical significance (or insignificance). The likely reason why most of us only get a middle digit finger salute is the fact that "it's still just a truck", not linked to any "enthusiasts" relationship to the "make and model". Give it another 30 or so years. Most Tacoma owners don't see their trucks the way TW readers do, and didn't buy them for the same reason. (When you buy a Harley, a 'Vette or a Jeep, and I've had all three, you do so knowing you are part of a "fraternity" of owners, of the brand). Not so when buying a Tacoma - but give it time - maybe.

    I noticed a lot of the tacomas here are older guys that dont look anywhere but straight ahead:rofl:. You can forget about it with them. I'm sure the heavily modded/obvious enthusiasts would wave, though. I've never tried.
