Maybe it's just me, but I do not perceive someone flashing their headlights at me as a friendly gesture.

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.

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

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.

Do you drive around with your high beams on???
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.

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.

I get flashed once ALL the time around town..knowing full well there isn't a cop up ahead (not that i'd be speeding anyways)..my high beams are never on so I flash them back as to say, HERE'S MY BRIGHTS!! QUIT FLASHING ME! haha

Actually, my wife is the one who got me started waving to other Hummer owners. I have 5 other H2 owners in my neighborhood, and only one waves back. I just don't understand why others don't get it.

As far as most H3 owners are....
