I learned to do this growing up, the two fingers up off the steering wheel, and I instinctively do it in rural areas now, it always cracks my husband up when this gay city dude is waving at country rednecks and they're waving back
Two whole fingers??? I was taught pointer finger for someone you don't know, two (pointer and middle) for someone you know the name of, three for a family friend (all three middle).
Mother taught dad this when he did three and she cracked up because you could see the other driver trying to figure out how he knew us.
Yep two fingers means "I'm from here" so I love the puzzled looks.
