A 5g Ranger Pulled up Aside Me... But...

[M SPEC]

I think we all need ranger5g.com stickers on our trucks with our usernames. It might not help us get a wave, but you'll know who to yell at here if they didn't wave back.

But you didn't refute...

Yeah, no, he's an angry elf. I have it on good authority he's not allowed within 1000 feet of that particular tree.

I'll wave back out in the sticks but here in the city? I'd question why someone is waving at me, even if they're in the same vehicle model as me...

Probably an old guy that likes a chrome package Lariet that is painted rapid red metallic, with window stickers that show he is packing a dee zee tailgate damper as well as a dee zee bed mat

Shoot, Ive had someone in a ranger give me a thumbs up, but I cant get my neighbors across the street to wave back.

They're probably afraid to.
Witness protection program will do that to you ?

Im going to start the ranger finger. ?? Just as a war effort against dampers.

Isn't there already a thread for that @AzScorpion ?

I totally get the same reaction Robert. Driver looking straight ahead and I’m waving like someone who just saw himself on the jumbotron at the hockey game when they pan the crowd during the commercial break.

HE WAS PROBABLY THINKING ABOUT HIS ALIMONY CHEQUE

He didn't wave at me.
I was kinda surprised.
Classic car guys always give a classic car guy a thumbs-up.
Truckers do it. Bikers do it. Even people passing by each other slowly on a quiet private road.
I mean, there isn't a lot of us 5g Ranger folks out there. When one of them saw me in one of them, I expected some kind of acknowledgement. But no, he just kept looking straight ahead at the stoplight.

I might consider returning a wave but only if I knew 100% it was a damperless Ranger, unfortunately there doesn't seem to be anyway to positively make that identification so for the time being I will remain waveless. It's a shame because like you my finger would be used for a dampened Ranger and a friendly, cheerful, warm, jovial wave to those without.

If wife is shotgun...I have to make sure first that a female is not in the ranger... In Maryland you then have to think is this the pickup friendly or is this the area not so friendly... The attitudes and reasons are so diverse as to if it's even safe to respond...but have and have not acknowledged a kind wave... Dampers and chrome packages ... But having grown up in once friendly but now it's unfriendly and having moved back to friendly areas...it's just a mess so don't judge me if I respond or don't the arbitrary response isn't you it's just the times and it really isn't me...I just think too much. I just don't want a kind wave response to escalate in a road rage incident

I was under the impression that my chrome package serves as an attractor for the opposite sex, like plumage on a male peacock, whereas a damper as the name implies serves to dampen any attraction as what manly man needs a damper. Why else would those cute young things be smiling at me - or is this only my imagination working overtime, sigh. In any event I have hope and will continue to keep a spiffy lustrous shine on my package. Sales guy said it would work that way when I ordered the Ranger and the chrome package.
