Good to see other fellow Jeep SRT 8 drivers flashing their headlights when they see another Jeep SRT 8 coming the opposite way. Have not seen this type of "friendliness" with any other Car/SUV drivers except for the older Corvettes.

Unfortunately, I never see other Jeep SRT8s on the road in my area. I'm not even getting the "jeep wave" from others who think they own "real" jeeps. :rolleyes:

Its hard to believe but I have still never seen another SRT on the road. I think I would be too shocked to remember to flash
Nice idea though:D

Great new pic, Ink! And I'm with you..... I still have only seen one other JeepSRT on the road, and it was across the country in Charlotte (I'm in Seattle). When I do finally see one, I'll probably be in too much shock to flash him.

I'll drive north, you drive south, and flash as we pass...

I'm not comfortable flashing people. However, back in the day, before I was married, I knew a few who enjoyed flashing others. Those were the days.

The only time I saw an SRT8 in person was in the dealership and parked in the mall parking lot. The guy modded his SRT8 (painted the chrome black) and I left him a forum card, but I haven't heard back from him :(.

I guess I'll just watch for the passenger int he Jeep to flash. That might be better anyway.

Hey street- where can I get forum cards? I occasionally see parked SRT's and would love to leave our info for other drivers

I would say that of all the SRT's sold in Canada, the better majority of them would be in the Toronto area compared to any other one place, and yet I still haven't passed one. If I do, I will now be looking closely at the passenger seat. :D

I always give a quick honk or wave or flash of the lights when I see any SRT-8. A MSRT-8 saluted me once, and now I see him all the time. We look for each other on the road to aknowlege the 6.1L Hemi we have. I enjoy it:)

Great idea guys.
I finally saw the other black SRT8 JGC in Charlotte the other day that GE2 and WK have seen in these parts. Surprised when my wife said, looks like the Hemi only it says Jeep!

I always wave, flash lights, etc. when I see ANY other SRT vehicle. I wish there was more of this type of "respect" or brotherhood. I've gotten a few strange looks from Charger guys while waving, as if I'm some kind of freak.

The forum card he is reffering to is a business card advertising his site, not cherokeesrt8.com...

The Jeep audience is very small and owners are typically loyal to Jeeps. This just doesn't happen to SRT8's. It happens to most Jeeps drivers, or at least I have seen it numerous times over the years since I became a Jeep owner.

I've only seen one other GC SRT8 in New York in the four months I've owned the truck..and by the time my jaw came back up from the floor it was too late to signal.

I do not see any SRT8's of any type.If any of you have ever owned a Jeep Wrangler (I had 3) you know all about flashing and waves.As far as I know NH only had 24 SRT8 Jeeps for sale.

That is ALL Corvettes.

My first Jeep YJ (wrangler), I couldn't believe the fellow Jeep waving, but I enjoyed it and would say it was 90-95% mutual. Kind of like boating. Same respect.

Someone driving a new Jeep Rubicon waved at me and I thought it was because we were both driving the best Jeep models on the road, so I waved back. Just as we were passing each other I could see it was actually a guy I know (husband of a friend of my ex) who was just waving because he recognized me and my Jeep. oh well. :(

Yup. Have been boating for years. Power boating. Grew up in a city north of Toronto on 2 lakes. Have had a 23' Scarab for the last 9 years, that I just can't seem to part with because it serves me so well. Boating has always been the ultimate escape from Toronto life. Lots of guys around with 50' Nortechs and Fountains and Skaters. Cousin has a 25' Talon and used to have a Scarab like mine.

The only time I've ever seen a Jeep SRT8 was when I was on my way to the dealership to pick mine up! I was in an M3, and although we were both going the same direction on the freeway, I was going to fast to stop plus he would've thought I was weird since I wasnt even in my SRT8, lol.

Since then I haven't seen another at all!
I've seen Chargers, there's actually a Charger SRT8 that parks in my garage at work, never seen the owner though.

I used to own:

BMW M3
Nissan 300ZX TT

and whenever I saw another, we all used to flash each other ... just imagine what we did when we ended up going the same direction as one another! :D
