Yeah ... I'm pretty sure if somone was flashing me I would think I just cut him off or something!

Re: Hummer wave
 

Only thing I ever catch while driving is some ******* in a jap car flipping me off.

Re: Hummer wave
 

Yeah...flashing can be confusing. In my neck of the woods:

One or two quick flashes: "Your high beams are on."
Three + quick flashes: "YOUR HIGH BEAMS ARE ON, A55HOLE!"
Heads lights on, then off, then on again: "Cop ahead. Watch out!"

If you wanna say "hello"...you gotta wave or nod.

Re: Hummer wave
 

Yeah totally agree with the lights flashing, but waving is different. I think waving is pretty harmless

Re: Hummer wave
 

The light flashing is only done when they are across from you. No sense in flashing lights when your behind him or in front of him....... I've probably had more hummers flash at me than wave.

Re: Hummer wave
 

Do you drive around with your high beams on??? :giggling:
I only flash or get flashed (we're talking about headlights right?) regarding high beams or hidden cops. If I got flashed and had my low beams on I would assume there is a cop ahead, and would get confused after driving a few miles at exactly the speed limit looking for cops and not seeing one.

Re: Hummer wave
 

Even if the only car flashing you is a hummer? If i had everyone flashing at me i would assume something is wrong. If its just a hummer i know what it means.

Re: Hummer wave
 

:iagree:

Re: Hummer wave
 

Are we still talking about flashing lights or flashing other things here... I've gotten a few of the other flashes before too...

Re: Hummer wave
 

does anyone get flashed by other cars because they think you have your brights on? when i first got my truck, i got flashed by cars all the time because they thought my brights were on. and any cars im behind i got flicked off because they thought i had the brights on. i have HID lights in and now i get flashed at even more than ever.

Re: Hummer wave
 

I've never been flashed by a Hummer. I've only had cars flash me (with their headlights...) when I've had my high beams on, or there is a cop ahead.

People ahead of me do get upset because my lights are right in their mirrors.

Re: Hummer wave
 

I got flashed quite a bit after leveling the truck...so I adjusted my headlights down a bit. No more flashing from other drivers.

Re: Hummer wave
 

Well i put my new hid off road lights in so if i get flashed Im gonna flash those back at them

Re: Hummer wave
 

I get flashed all the time since the truck is lifted and I have HIDs. Never bothered adjusting the headlights down. I always see people in front of me trying to adjust their mirrors or block the light from their eyes. Oh well.

Re: Hummer wave
 

I get flashed all the time at night, people think the high beams are on. During the day I would not flash my lights unless I was warning someone ther was a cop ahead. Back to the wave.... I think everyone on here would wave to one another. It's the people that are not part of any forum and dont have any pride in there Hummers that just dont get it.

Re: Hummer wave
 

I always try to acknowledge my fellow H2 brothers by either flashing the lights when I see them coming the opposite direction or waving if I am heading in the same direction on the road. I never ever, ever never, ever ever, I mean never, cut off my fellow H2 brothers and sisters. I have too much love for them.

I am always on the road traveling back and forth from VA to South Jersey. I am now up to 110,000 miles in 3 years, without an issue.

On a different note, I recently decide to start going car shopping to supplement my H2. It was an awful experience. All I kept doing was comparing the vehicles to my H2. I kept saying, why am I so low to the ground, why is everything so close, etc, etc.

I have come to the realization that either I will have to get another H2 or buy an armored truck and customize it. I don't think my wife will let me buy an armored vehicle and park it in the garage.

Re: Hummer wave
 

dont get rid of it! these motors will last quite a long time. i have a 2001 silverado with the 6.0 in it, and it has 263K on it. still running great. just rock it till it dies.....then replace the motor:D

Re: Hummer wave
 

:iagree:

Re: Hummer wave
 

While the wife and I are walking each morning we wave at another H2 owner that lives in our neighborhood. I don't think she even knows we have an H2, also. :shhh:

Re: Hummer wave
 

its always the really "chromed out" hummers that dont wave back in my experience anyway. shoot i saw another hummer in the parking lot the other day and parked right beside it. (it was blacked out) and when i came back out the guy was waiting for me, complemented my ride and i returned the compliment. sat there for a while and talked
