I always wave at every transporter I see, and usually at any flat four. I've tried waving at EVs but almost never get a positive response.

Anyway, the other day, lying on my back "bench pressing" my front end (with the help of my coils) trying to determine the location of the new squeak, I heard the lovely music of a 1600 aproaching. I crawled out to see a beautiful little green Ghia 'vert pulling up. The owner, who I've passed on the street and waved to a few times, asked if I needed help or anything. I said no but thanked her anyways. Now if I hadn't waved at her a few times in the past, would the driver of a very nice Ghia offer help to a complete... nay compleat stranger under an 85 Vanagon? I dunno, But waving may have it's benifits. (she's also seen me in a 71 super, so she knows I'm not just a clueless H2O owner. :))

Cheers
