Howdy. My wife drives a Jeep Rubicon, 95% of the time when two jeeps meet oncoming there is the casual 2 finger acknowledgement between the two jeep drivers. What if there was a designated Lightning wave for this same situation? May I suggest it be like a superhero throwing a lightning bolt. I.e. a push forward with the fist then an open palm. Is that considered uncool? At least we are not putting rubber ducks all over our vehicles. Now that i published this here. Please don't pull out your gun if I throw a lightning bolt at you.

Make a capital letter "L" with your thumb and index finger.

Oh wait....

It’s kinda rare for me to see other Lightnings in Birmingham so I’m like a little kid when I see another one. I always wave.

Whenever I see another lightning (which is easily 10 -20 times a day at this point ), I immediately pull off into any grass covered area and begin doing donuts as my “wave”. . This should be the preferred method going forward.

I have yet to see a fellow lighting in my travels. But when I do, I’ll be sure to wave and give them 👍

I waved when I first got my truck and I still notice every lightning on the road but no one ever waved back so I gave up.
Never give up, just adjust your approach until you get attention

You make the “L” sign when passing a CyberTruck!

Granted I have only seen 6 other lightning’s physically driving as I’ve past them (not parked) but I get more waves from Tesla drivers while in my lightning.

I rarely see any other Lightnings. When I do the other drivers are completely oblivious. No waving. No two finger raise. Nothing. I get more out of the Rivian drivers.
I'll have to trek down to that neck of the woods! :)

I wave to you idiots all the time. So far, nothing back. There's at least three of you in my immediate area. I think I'm more observant than most people, but it's just such a unique grill I can't believe no one even turns their head.
