On a Harley, in a Boat, in a Corvette, in a Jeep there is that wave thing and I will wave back at anyone who waves at me but it's the same some Harley riders will not wave at other brand bikes and so on, I wave at any motorcycle, and they all usually wave back and sooner or later the Jeepers will realize the Bronco is here to stay this time and if not, Who Cares! and besides that if they are putting up 1 finger it's better than none (y)

Out and about today, I pull my 6 month old beater, covered in mud sans doors and top, next to a beautiful white soft top 4 door. Give’m a big grin and a one finger wave. Nothing. She just looks at me with her pie hole agape. What’s up with Bronco gals?

I’m surprised you encountered that many Jeep Wranglers driven by guys. I swear the majority of Jeep Wranglers around me are female owned.
And they usually have bumper stickers that say something like, "Silly boy, Jeeps are for girls", right?

I was driving from the dmv last weekend and spotted a little wrangler get together in a strip mall parking lot. I figured I’d swing by and say hi. They had a few Wranglers and Gladiators set up there, they looked real nice. Anyway, I pulled up to them and they kinda looked shocked at first. Like a few of them didn’t even know what I was driving. Lol. I expected to be able to stop for a bit and talk off-roading for a minute or two— with a few gibes here and there, of course.

But, I pull up to them and say in a good-natured way, “ Hey can I join in?” They laughed, but then the apparent leader of the group says, “Hahahah, no get out of here,” with a smile. I was like damn. No off road talk, I guess. They complimented me on my Bronco before I drove off though.

Still would have liked to stick around for a second to trade gibes if nothing else.

As a current Jeep owner, owner of multiple classic Jeeps and current reservation order holder hoping to one day get my Bronco here is my take. I have gone to recent Jeep shows with my CJ7 and have be accused of bringing a Mahindra to the show. It seems like there are a group of current Jeep owners who are more interested in the number of rubber ducks that they can collect versus what their Jeep represents. I have never owned a JK or a 4 door Jeep , but when it came time, I ordered a 4 door Bronco. With that said, I will always love Jeep, I loved them when it wasn't cool. All the "Jeep" people I know love what Ford has done and can't wait for what improvements competition will bring to both brands. Here are some of the collection and the Bronco will fit right in.

One last comment, you can thank JEEP for the current Bronco, without Jeeps success with the 4 door variant the bean counters at Ford would have never greenlighted the reboot, and let's be truly honest, in 1978 when Ford switched to the Bronco competing with the K5 Blazer it was not the same. Cheers, this Jeep guy won't flip you off, but I am in Texas, so there's that.
Excellent vehicles, man.

I’ve almost been hit 3 times now from people in jeeps trying to race or get in front of me to slam on the brakes. All have been younger drivers. 1 almost ate the curb from oversteer. Ones on the Highway are easy to get away from. My truck actually weaves traffic at 80+.

I was also flipped off by a 4 door Lux bronco driver. Might have thought I had a jeep. No idea on that one.

I don’t flip anyone off or wave. But will wave back. I bought it for my entertainment. Not to be part of some cult where I feel obligated to wave at everyone.

Still love jeep 2 doors. Would love to pick a older one in the future. Or a Comanche.

I have seen a done up gladiator by me on 38’s or 40’s. That thing is mean looking.

Well a first for me happened yesterday. Driving on the paved 2-lane causeway and an oncoming angry eyes cloaked Jeep purposely crossed over into my lane in a game of chicken. About 1 car vehicle length, they ducked back into their lane, but I had already started steering for the shoulder. He felt compelled to indicate that I was #1 as we passed each other.

That's crazy. Some people are ignorant.

funny update:
-Waved at jeeps yesterday with mixed reactions.
-Waved at 3 broncos, only one waved back.
-Next to a Jeep this morning and the clown was like Dominic Torretto. Luckily I had my nitrous turned up and “treed” his a** (lol).

In all seriousness Jeeps are everywhere and these broncos are still pretty rare. Take it as a compliment that you own a Unicorn for now :)
