Default Do you honk and wave at xA and tC drivers?

I have honked and waved at tons of xB drivers since I got mine and only one person stared at me like I was on crack *lol* Do you honk and wave at all Scion owners or are you xB biased?

The only reason I don't wave at all Scions is because the xA and tC aren't as readily recognizable as the xB and I usually don't notice them until my b/f says, "Hey there goes a (whatever)!"

i got waved at by one and at first i didnt know what to make of it. apparently, scion owners are a friendly bunch. i honestly was not used to that. here in s.a. no scion owners honk or wave-they must be shy

I always wave at a Scion... We are all "family".
There have been times that owners won't wave,
They just look at me weird for waving.
Oh well!!

Funny you mentioned it..Todat was the first time someone flicked their brights and waved, I responded with a tap of the horn and a wave. It was a fellow xB'er.

I can spot an xB in time to wave, and do when I see one - or flash, at least. I'm not that adept at spotting xA and tC types, though, and by the time I've figured out it's a Scion it's too late.

So far I've only been ignored by one fellow xB driver.

I have been honking and waving at all scions in the 310 area and I have been ignored by about 75% of them! Although i must admit that the ones that wave are quite friendly, and a few times we have stopped and showed off a bit.

I honk and wave to any scion owners I see....after the Elf Grove scion bbq a couple weeks ago I was mobbing back with a tc going 80+ down I-5. I like all the scion models, the xA the least, but any car looks sweet after you do some modifications!

I always wave at xB's, and usually at xA's if I notice in time, which can be difficult. A tC driver was ******* my car at a gas station one time, and it seems they are less prone to wave, as am I now.

I don't because I would be doing it all day long since there are so many.
