Norah:
This actually happens a lot to me. When I was driving my motorcycle seriously,
I would always get the left-hand wave from people coming from the other
direction. No matter what brand you are riding, you can expect "the hand" from
the other rider and you *have* to return "the hand". I've had guys driving
really, really nice Harleys wave at me while I was on my Yamadog like I was one
of their own.
A similar thing happens when I am cruising around in my Camaro. People usually
stick their head out the window of their vehicle and yell "NICE CAR!!!" I've
also had older men give me the thumbs up when they see my car. I think they
remember the good old days when the car first hit the streets (I was only six
months old when my Camaro was assembled!).

Wow! You have two identical trucks? Must be nice to have extra cash like
that. Do you drive them on alternating days? ;^)
BTW, there is no 'E' in Camaro. What year Camaro did you have?
