Skoolie Wave?
Is there a Skoolie Wave? I used to have a Jeep Wrangler and there was a wave you did when you saw another Wrangler drive past.

Great topic! lol funny because i now wave at bus drivers and i imagine they haven't a clue why.
kinda like the motorcycle wave; when passing another motorcycle we always throw a peace sign down low with the clutch hand.
Yes we need a "Skoolie" wave. I propose the "Hang loose" hand. It's a classic and in many ways embodies the free spirited skoolie in me.

YES!!! there is a skoolie wave... (I have had 8 wranglers... so I know the Jeep wave).. I didnt realize there was a skoolie wave until I started getting waved at by all the real school bus drivers when im out in my bus..
my bus looks still like a bus and not an RV so I also get truckers that wave as they go by too... (commercial driver wave?)..
I drive my bus like a commercial vehicle around town so maybe they just know me? (i'll hold traffic so the school busses can turn left, flash the trucks in on the freeway etx)...

Many Many years ago before CB radios I believe truckers used a 2 finger peace sign held sideways which ment cops where ahead of you, since their no longer using it maybe we can comadere it.

MAN! I'm old. It's going to be hard to remember the one fingered salute has been changed! Oh well, maybe after you all have endured the S@#$ some of us have been through trying to survive LA traffic in a Skoolie you'll revert to only lifting a single digit.

That school crossing guard always gets mad at me when she sees me texting with one hand and holding my beer with the other hand... As I drive by.
