Default You acknowledge other stangs?

So I am driving to the gym today, and I get behind a Sonic Blue 05-07 Roush. He turns to get on the freeway, and I follow since I am headed the same way. Lots of traffic, so we both just cruising along in the slow lane. A few miles down, my exit comes up and I pass by him in the offramp. Then I thought to myself, do I give a casual wave as a sign of the mustang brotherhood, or just fly on by?

I often feel a sense of pride when driving my stang, and was wondering how ya all feel. Do you admirably acknowledge the other stangers out there, or just fly by asanother stranger commuting yer way through traffic?

I wave or flash my lights sometimes. Somtimes I feel stupid and they dont wave back and other times people are pleasantly surprised and wave back entusiastically. Just depends..some people just dont know how to handle greetings from strangers.

I rode a Harley for years, there aren't alot of Harley (HOG) rules, riders almost always low wave at brother Harley riders and never pass another biker thats broke down on the shoulder.

I always wave at other Mustang owners and will always stop to help!

To me it's just like being on the Bike (motorcycle). I give the wave and if they don't reply oh well, probably didn't see me. Just a part of being in the brotherhood.

I actually did just that to a 2007 GT today.

I wave at other Mustangs. Sometimes I'll get one in return, sometimes I get a funny look. Doesn't matter I'll keep on wavin'.

I know Corvette owners wave at each other no matter what generation their driving. I think it's a nice gesture aknowledging you're part of an unofficial "club".

i wave & if eye contact is made i give a thumbs up. while filling up with gas if another mustang owner is filling up also , i make it a point to say " i like your mustang".

I never thought about signaling another 'stang until it happened to me. Got my car 2 days, and a fox flashes his brights. O.K. he likes the body style, then it happened with somebody else the next day. Since then I treat
all Mustangs like we are all in the "club".
