Default To Wave or Not to Wave?

Being new to trucks, wondered if anyone waves to other F150s they cross paths with?
Coming from the Jeep and muscle/pony car community, Jeep owners live by it (there is even an etiquette: the newer model is to initiate the wave; primarily among the SWB Jeeps -CJs, YJs, TJs, JKs). (modern) Muscle/pony car guys either wave, flash high beams or rev as they pass.

Even motorcyclists have a hands down wave (not sure if it's just Harley guys or non-crotch rockets)

Just wondering if F-150 owners do anything along those lines?

I don't. I just act like a girl at a club and look it up and down, comparing.

Yeah this^^^

I came from obscure VW/Audi and Land Rover world. I wave to those people. There are tons of F150s around. Way too many to wave at.

lol the number one selling vehicle in the US, my arm would be jacked. If I see a nice modded F150 or any truck for that matter, I usually do as LaMartian said and eye it up real good. Nod my head if I approve lol

Oh yeah, I'm always checkin' out other trucks, Ford or not (I'm a truck *****).

If I stop at a light next to one and they look friendly, I'll roll my window down and chat until the light turns green.

Had a CJ-7 back in the 80s and noticed that. Nothing since though - if you wave at F-150 owners, they'll laugh if they react at all.
