I give a thumbs up, and if the other Prius driver doesn't notice, I wave too.

The only time I got a surprised & wave back, was from a taxi driver in Laval, in a silver Prius just like mine.
We both got a good laugh.

None of you guys are from the South are you? Growing up there everyone waved at one another regardless if the car was a a Pacer, a Pontiac or a Studebaker, it's just how people in the South roll.
We bought our '05 in May, here in the Palm Springs area and since then we have seen the numbers of Prii in the Coachella Valley just mushroom. Or maybe it's just the 'shrooms making us see Prii everywhere. Regardless, there are not that many Prii waves to be passed about out here. It may be because this place is so close to LA and Hollywood the self-absoption rate seems to be a bit high. When my wife and I pack up and move (back to the South) in a couple of weeks, we will certainly be wearing wrist braces for all of the Prii waving we will be doing.

I've tried waving to other Prius drivers around Chicago, but very few responses. (Well, maybe surprise.)
