when ever i see a scoob i always try and wave or acknowledge them,but they never wave back is it because i drive a forester and not the typical impreza?

S.B.

No its because you are sad

Road Rager

nothing sad with waving

i would say its the forester mate.

explore

i always wave at fellow scooby drivers

sti joy

dont worry about it, ive got an sti8 and hardly any body waves or flashes their lights i wave or flash at any subaru and it is mostly the less sporty ones that wave nearly all the wrxs and stis just sail past with me holding my hand up saying to my wife that they probably didnt see me, like you can miss an sti bearing down on you

Waving comes with owning a subaru, Its all part of the Fun.

Just the grumpy ones that don't wave.

They are not worthy of owning a scoob

corradoboy

I always wave (much to the annoyance of Corradogirl ). Well, I do if I can get my finger out of my nose quick enough

Just waved to a silver STi8 this morning in Bramley, Leeds. And he waved back too!

Mikkk

I always wave ... providing I realise it's a scoob in time
(Getting better at identifying them, but still not 100%)

Only had mine a week, and had three or so Scoobys wave at me with me waving back. Reminds me of years ago when I was into Beetles, and more recently on bikes - always nod or wave. Why not?

mart360

waves at scoobs 100%

waved at by scoobs 0%

prehaps if i flipped the bird migh get a response

papascooby

I'm really grumpy and even I wave

ClassicScoobyJay

I always wave when I realise it's a Scoob I'm looking at - trouble is I usually get a look in return thats says either:


a) "You are too young to be driving a Scooby therefore I refuse to acknowledge you"

b) "I thought I was the only Scooby driver in this area, you've made me feel less special, therefore I refuse to acknowledge you"


Thats why it was nice to attend a ScoobyNet meet (rolling road day at Engine Advantages - Whittam) and find out that at least SN scooby drivers are generally nice blokes/ladies

greasemonkey

Eh? I don't know about you, but at no point prior to posting here was I even aware of the convention that Subaru drivers are supposed to acknowledge each other. I daresay the same goes for the tens, maybe hundreds of thousands of other Subaru owners who don't post on Scoobynet, belong to the SIDC or whatever it may be.

Please tell me you are joking?

On-The-Wagon

I was flashed by another scooby on my first ever test-drive of my first-ever impreza. Made me feel quite good and that I was joining a community. I tried to flash back but being used to Peugeots I just set the windscreen wipers off instead...d'oh. Think the other guy saw the funny side though, he was grinning as he passed me...

ClassicScoobyJay

That reminds me of when I squirted my windscreen washers in anger when someone cut me up. Made me laugh and calmed the road-rage though

FrenchBoy

Greasemonkey,

I take it you're not a waver then.

D4V3

Doesn't look like it!!!

StickyMicky

all my waves stopped when i painted the back end red

julie1

and there was me thinking that down here in Sussex scooby drivers are just snobs, l hardly get a wave but if l do its from Mondeo owners

ozzy

I certainly wave. Even did so before I found Scoobynet or SIDC.

That was back in the days when they weren't so popular and it was nice to actually meet another one on the road.

Stefan

Redevilwrx

I'll 2nd that !!!

haha

King RA

Miserable git, it's people like you who ruin it for everyone else and make us feel like **** when we don't get waved back at!!

greasemonkey

Lol! What makes you think I don't wave? Just at the people who take it personally when it doesn't happen to them.

Like I said before, it's not like waving is part of the Subaru sales contract, there are loads of Scooby drivers out there who simply don't realise it's the "done thing". No big deal, and certainly no need to get all steamed up about it!

I wave to the Kent lot when I drive through thier county, but they dont wave back, I'm not sure, but it might be because I'm driving the company's pick up, and not my WRX!!

S.B.

Do you take those drugs for medical or recreational use?

Scooby Lee

I always flash my lights and wave at other Scooby Drivers!!

.....the only exception is when cornering quickly whilst changing gear (I have a healthy fear of death)!!

Most wave/flash back!!

...............................apparently drivers who wear baseball caps find it hard to communicate!! (If you know what I mean?!)

mart360

So its not just me that thinks w.sussex scoobs are not playing ball...

if i can spot a scoob at 200yds,, why cant they????

i know.... if it hasnt got spots its not a scoob .......


one day my wave will come
