I wave, no honking though. The horn is sacred.

I wave to all that I notice. It's a cool wave though, not a pathetic one. Like "yo", not "oh boy, oh boy!!", cause that would show weakness. NEVER show weakness.

I also wave to Neon's and say "Hi". That annoys the crap outta them now.

I notice that when I look over at other scions on highways or stops signs/redlights, they seem uncomfortable, so I dont bother waving.

Could my psychotic facial expressions be scaring them?

Whenever I see a tC or xA, I give 'em half a peace sign.

i never wave/honk at xA or tC people, they bought the wrong car....

I never have the Xbs wave or acknowledge my existence. They are treated like I treat any other car now - an obstacle to get past

It's 50/50. I wave when I make eye contact with the other driver. I waved at one elderly guy driving an xB and he looked at me as if I was crazy. I was honked at one Saturday by another xB. I honked back and waved. Some xB driver's will not even look at me so I can wave at them. Maybe I look to threatening; 6'0'' ,300lbs, Black Male with dreadlocks riding in this little blue van.

I wave like "OH BOY OH BOY!!!" lol I get all kinds of excited when I see another Scion! I'm sure this "new scion owner psychosis" will wear off soon...

If I see another Scion xA ,xB or tC and wife and kids are with me I'll say Scoin and try to get next to them and tell my kids to wave and most of the times they wave back.

I don't honk or wave because they are all old people here. I havn't seen anyone my age yet in my area. They would just stare at me. They stare when i drive by them in the same car they have.

But, I had one xA owner flash me at the sacstate parking structure... I didn't know what to do! I was painstainkly finding parking so I tried to nod back... I don't think they noticed.

But hey it was a polar white xA with some 18s I think...

I only honk and wave at modded xB's or xA's. Regular folks just don't seem to want to bother with crazy people

Most of the tC's I've seen on the road are driven by girls @_@
