    Maybe I'm just too country...

    Ok so I grew up in Alabama, lived in Mississippi and Georgia for a little while, oh and Texas too. So I've become accustomed to waving to people, say another WRX driver/owner, and have them wave back. The 3-4 WRXs I've waved too didn't pay any attention to me. It could be there are too many WRXs around to feel like a group. Not so many WRXs in Alabama or Georgia -or Subarus for that matter.

    So should I just stop making myself look like a dork or were the other WRX drivers just busy with something else?

    Dont stop man, for some reason the new breed of subaru owners seem to have sticks up there rears but the love for a subaru should always be shown.

    Nobody waves anymore down here either. Everyone did in 2001.

    I always wave when I can. Sometimes taking a hand off the steering wheel isn't feasible though. It'll happen.

    Some traditions need to stand. Don't let the non-wavers deter you. Wave on, man, wave on!

    the dude abides... this fool won't stop waving.

    I'm military and we have access to a DIY garage on most posts/bases/forts. I went there last night and saw a dude with a 2010 WRX hatch flavor. Dude was real cool. Even said my bugeye looked nice.

    I'm at Fort Meade.

    O.T. I went to Wilkin's Subaru in Glen Burnie earlier today to get my WRX checked out for a recall that came out. Robin, the lady behind the counter, was awesome there. Very military friendly I'd say. Discount and other nice-ities offered for the after the part comes in recall/bulletin fix.
