Now, to be fair, when I say we don't do this I'm only talking about my corner of the Golden Horseshoe in S. Ontario. Every time I've passed another Xfire I've always acknowledged the driver and felt a little stupid when they just look at me like I'm crazy.
Up until yesterday, that is. I was driving along and noticed in my peripheral vison that someone was shadowing me. I glanced over and saw a fellow in a white roadster giving me the thumbs-up. I returned the gesture and continued on to my destination. A few moments later that same white roadster pulled in beside me and the fellow introduced himself and we had a nice chat about our beloved vehicles.
Thanks for starting the ball rolling Steve! I hope to see more of my fellow drivers out there giving the thumbs-up!
I would like to wave at other Crossfires but I seldom see any. I still wave at MG's because I'm in a two seater. gary
