Used to see this with jeep drivers when I had the CJ5 and CJ2A. I'd
ave at all of them, but usually only the CJ5/7 guys waved back. Or built
YJ's (Wranglers). I suspect many of the YJ girls/guys had no idea why
other jeepers kept waving, "what, are my headlights, like, broken?"
I figure Kai's Fiat friend was trying to flag him down to find out what
kind of car he was driving -- so she could sell the Fiat and get one.
Of course I'm sure most of the old-time TR drivers on the list have
stories of being forced off the road by gorgeous sports car drivers. :-)
