Jeep Wave & Jeep Ducks - What Are They?

[@robertvance1873]

There's also a P71 Crown Victoria Police interceptor, Wave 👋 to Acknowledge Each Other because some Areas it has become like a Family and a Brotherhood.

WHAT not Allison , R.I.P her contributions to this channel will not be forgotten

The wave greeting - in the 1980s I drove flatbed lumber trucks for a building supply company on Long Island. Back then, practically every town on LI had at least one lumber company or building supply outfit. Whenever i would driving along Sunrise Highway or Montauk Highway, or whatever, every single time I would encounter a lumber truck from one of the other companies, we would always wave to each other. It was a fellowship, a brotherhood, of flatbed lumber haulers. Long Island Building Supply waving to Whitbread Lumber waving to Nassau-Suffolk Lumber waving to Riverhead Building Supply and on and on. Recently, I, driving a vintage Pontiac Sunbird convertible exchanged waves with the driver of a Pontiac GTO convertible. It's all about the brotherhood.

4:04 That son of a bee sting, how dare he not reciprocate. All joking aside love the videos glad Collector Car Feed brought me over.

[@efrazier0217]

We had jeeps in the 80's and 90's and never saw a special wave or waves for Jeep drivers. I'm pretty sure this only began within the last 20 years.

[@thndr_5468]

"We're going to do some ducking" I think I'm on the wrong site

[@qoph1988]

Very similar to the "motorcycle wave" (try it with a guy on a scooter, they won't return the wave, they don't know anything). And it probably started in a similar way.. The first biker gangs were essentially post-war veteran's clubs

[@star_wolf181]

I never knew there was a jeep wave since I come from rural area I thought they were just saying hi 👋. We usually say hi to everyone to be polite.

[@paperthinpizza]

THANK GOD my Jeep is an XJ so I don't have to deal with any of that foolishness.

[@bradongann5678]

I have a yj no one waves or gives me ducks and I’m glad

[@PremierAutoMan86]

Love the Buc-ee's shirt man!

[@AnItalianGuyOnYT]

wait, the 2 fingers up thing is a jeep thing? wasn't it just a generic wave to other motorists? even if they're not the same car?

[@wigletron2846]

There's also a Holden GM import wave lol. I have a G8 and get waves from GTOs, Chevy SS, and other G8s. Also had people roll down the window and chat at lights about the cars.

[@KidNato]

I always thought the ducks were a sign that the occupants were down to swing

[@AkiraSRT9]

That's hilarious 😂

[@slkric1724]

😂

[@star_wolf181]

Nah that’s the pineapple 🍍

[@nathanjoseph4284]

The same thing happens between school bus drivers as well. They wave when passing another oncoming school bus to greet each other. :)

[@Crispychicken4u]

“ we’re going to go to the Jeeps natural habit .. a mall on Saturday “ - everything is wrong with that statement 🤦‍♂️ Mallcrawlers 😂

[@RobsNeighbor]

Thank you for educating us!

[@greenlavaproductions]

When I tried to explain to a friend that people in Jeeps and Corvettes wave he was dumbfounded.

[@donteadoss]

I kid you not that I was going to Google the purpose of the rubber ducks, and up pops your video. Thanks for this quite intriguing piece of recent automotive history.

[@adamk2778]

I'm probably one of the few, but as a Jeep owner, I hate this duck thing. I can't take Jeep people seriously when I see all those ducks all over their Jeeps. I love the wave, but that's non existant in my area. I wave and get nothing back, but they all have those stupid ducks lined up on their dash. Thankfully I've never been ducked. My guess is because my 06 TJ Rubicon doesn't spend any time in a mall parking lot. I drive it on nice days to work, but mostly if I'm diving it I'm heading to an offroad park.

[@mikeypv6]

In the UK... Subarus and MX5s have an owners nod and weirdly so does all the supermarket delivery vans 😅

[@wigletron2846]

Motorcycle wave has been a thing for awhile

[@billseiler4952]

I couldn’t concentrate on the duck content….i was focused on your non shooting cars t-shirt 😂😂😂

[@berttyq50]

Awesome video! Been watching a long time and finally got a camera to make videos!

[@extralock1045]

1 Interesting thing I've noticed about Jeep owners, they aren't in a hurry. I sit in the right lane, going 55 MPH on the interstate to hypermile, everyone passes, and usually the only people who decide to stay behind are Jeep's. They must be there just for the ride. (:

[@bwofficial1776]

My Jeep is gearing-limited to 55MPH and doesn't have a rev limiter. If for some reason I accidentally end up on the highway, which despite my best efforts has happened, I'll sit there at 54 until the next exit.

[@nbhenry1647]

I've owned 3 CJs, and I would always do the steering wheel wave to other Jeep owners on the road, and would always get a wave back. This was the 90s, so way before the ducks.

[@TheLordOfNothing]

I own a 1949 US Navy Jeep. All the Jeep owners in the Northlake area know me by now.

[@slkric1724]

I have had my Jeep Wrangler for three year's now and still waiting on first duck. ✌🏽

[@keithdosik]

Wow rest in peace Alison. Gone too soon. 😢

[@BritishGun]

The Toyota FJ cruiser has something similar, plus are often included by Jeep Owners for a wave. The FJ "wave" I've seen in the flashing of the mirror lights in the same vein. Could be just an Alaska thing though.

[@robertvance1873]

That's a Shame 😔 She Seemed like Such a Nice Person R.I.P. ALLISON.

[@danharden438]

People buy their own ducks and literally don’t understand what this is

[@davidp2888]

Nice tribute to Alison.

[@davinp]

Chrysler bought AMC because they wanted Jeep. Chrysler is now FiatChrysler owned by Stellantis and their quality has downhill with the Italian flare that American's don't want

[@schreiber9864]

That’s true. I bought my Jeep despite the Fiat connection, not because of it. And I don’t even live that far from Italy. Only Italians love Fiats. So far, I am quite satisfied with my Compass, though.

[@therealboofighter]

Interesting Shooting Cars shirt.

[@JeepsOnTheRun]

eye spy some Jeeps On The Run Jeeps & Photos :). Nice video!

[@FATBOY2222]

I wave at other Chevy caprice station wagons lol 😂

[@GregoryGlessnerViolin]

We need a GM M-Van wave! 👋

[@elliot3751]

I think Jeep owners don’t usually acknowledge anything that’s not a wrangler. Aka Renegade, Cherokee and yes Gladiator. If it’s not a wrangler, it’s not deserving of a Jeep Wave or Ducks. But I wouldn’t know. I get all my info from my Jeep Friend. Personally I’m more of a Miata guy 😌

[@gaufrid1956]

In the Philippines, after World War II, there were large numbers of surplus military Jeeps. So, of course, Filipino ingenuity crafted the "Jeepney", which became the standard of transportation for the masses. Think a Jeep expanded to become a sort of a bus. Individual Jeepney owner-drivers individualized their vehicles with paint jobs and graphics. There are still many on the roads here, but unfortunately the government is supporting drivers' collectives that replace the traditional Jeepneys with Chinese EVs or Japanese modern diesel vans that do the same job that Jeepneys always did, but without the same character. It's sad. Also, modern Jeeps are ranked lowly for reliability. As an Aussie married to a Filipina grandmother here in Mindanao Philippines, I love the old style Jeepneys.

[@TwoDollarGararge]

Same thing happens with porsche 944's you see another one you thumbs up there not common. I've seen this with focus ST owners to.

[@Commandos12]

wave reminds of riding a motorcycle :D

[@mromatic17]

thats so sad that allison passed away she did start something really sweet and she must've been a really nice person RIP allison!

[@whippedmaxima]

Do they do that to xj Cherokees or only standard jeeps

[@michaelantuna3648]

Could you please review a 2nd Gen Grand Cherokee WJ & a 1st liberty

[@KeaganExtremeGaming]

Subaru owners also end up waving to each other and some are trying to use cows but moo moo Subaru as it’s called is very controversial

[@lowvoltdude1418]

Looks like the oak brook mall

[@bazilwreckerloughead]

I might have missed it & it might sound like a *stupid* question; what do the QR codes consist of?

[@senseicorey9979]

I've been driving a wrx since 2008, you have ANY idea how many waves I've given out in the last 16 years? A LOT. They definitely borrowed the wave from us

[@ManiaMusicChannel]

I thought it was a girl thing owning a Jeep Wrangler and it kind of is 🤔😄 (the ducking)

[@davidreyes4983]

Now I need a duck for my jeep

[@06toyotatundraguy]

Anybody else watching this in a Jeep?

[@Tizogf]

I didn't know about this, but my wife, who just started driving, did she got me a duck it's like this 🖕🏾 literally 😂

[@tripleagaming6814]

I own a 2001 wrangler when I see a new jeep owner giving me a wave I ignore it but if a older jeep give me one I acknowledge it. Is that just me . Also I hate the jeep duck thing I will never put one in my jeep

[@kc0lif]

actually jeep owned by Chrysler. duck thing nah no thanks 🤦.

[@cryotasticshitposting]

Nice shirt man!

[@the-pezinator]

6:37, I'm so glad you ducked an XJ, there is some kind of divide between Wrangler Jeep owners and XJ Jeep owners, and any other older Jeep that's not a Wrangler style, most don't like each other so they don't generally duck them, and some XJ owners don't even like the idea of ducking, but I like to do it because I own an XJ and I think it's a nice thing to do. R.I.P. Allison.

[@ShootingCars]

We would have done more but XJs are hard to come by up north here with all the salt!

[@the-pezinator]

@@ShootingCars HA, true, North has it worse than East, we also salt the roads in the PA/NY/NJ areas, I see a lot of rotting XJs around, damn salt lol.

[@mromatic17]

i just bought a mint 2017 jku like 3 months ago and I've only noticed maybe 3 jeep waves and have never got a duck. I really don't think its as common as ppl say. I live in Utah too and theres shit tons of jeeps here!
