I do that to other built Jeeps when driving a built Jeep, but not in a Dodge. I mean its a pickup truck.

Stock Jeeps or Jeeps with female drivers aren't worth the time either.

I am thinking theres a bit of a SRT gang goin... I get lots of waves from SRT-4s and Rumble Bees. Seems anything that comes out of the SRT dept. seems to have a brotherhood.

That and think about it, lots of people buy the hemi for the same reason you did, and so they all wave because people like whats familiar.

I totally agree with you, I would wave with to another Hemi for exactly what you just said.
5 Tons...... HA HA HA HA. More like 3400lbs. Yea, I just don't give people like that the time of day.
I try not to let people like that bother me, but I would love to dent some jerks brand new $100,000 car just because he thinks he is better than someone else. Just knock him down a peg or 9. It would be worth the jump in insurance.

dont see too many rams on the road , mostly see them on the motorway, and when your on the motorway you wanna be watching where ya going, cause theres a lot of cool games motorists play here for instance theres the weave wildly from lane to lane Game, lets change lanes without indicating, lets indicate left but swerve right game, oops i missed my offramp so i'll stop and reverse back up the motorway game (believe it or not this actually happened and resulted in the deaths of about 5 people), how slow can i drive in the fast lane and how fast can i drive in the slow lane games, the shes hot better slam my brakes on so i can perve properly game( a personal favorite ), and the latest game out to relieve the boredom is I must text my friends to tell them about that hot chick game.

on the bike though usually wave, get waved at from other motorcyclists, except harley riders. they usually just give us evil stares

The other day I saw a new Viper on the road while driving home from work. I waved to it while passing him and thought that there must be some bond between us since we both drive new, powerful Dodges. I was wrong; I got no wave back from the Viper. I can’t blame him either, it’s a Viper after all.
Don't take it to heart, my dad has a Viper, and I have driven it quite a bit - so speaking from experiance - about half the time, I wouldn't see someone waving until it's to late to wave back. The rest of the time, you have to remember how low it is, still may not have seen you waving and he may have had other things on his mind, like watching for the next bonehead to weave through traffic to catch him, ect.

dodgeramnz - That wouldn't happen to be Florida your talking about, would it? Sounds oooohhh soooooo familiar.

TSR6 pretty much has it. I've got both a '97 Viper GTS and an '04 1500 HEMI QC. No matter what the other guy/gal is driving, and whether they wave, thumbs up, honk or flash their lights, I always wave back ... IF I see them in time. Quite often, I just catch the kudos in my side/rear view mirror and it's too late to reciprocate. I've also been told that I dissed one of my buddies on the road. They say they honked, but I didn't even look up. I then explain that with my Corsa cat-back and high flow cats, short of a police or fire siren behind me, I can't hear much.

So again, as TSR6 said, don't assume Viper owners are snooty simply because they don't respond. Most anyone on the road will appreciate someone else appreciating their ride ... if they notice in time.
