A man in a white Mk1 with fitted windows pulled out of the Tesco filling station in Dumfries and looked at me in my van, I think that he was thinking "he's one of us".
Do we need a secret sign or something?
It was only by chance that I accosted kenbw2 in the woods in his blue van.
(Btw, my sticker is on the back doors)

My sticker is also on the back door......
If it's not recognisable as a Red rather than white Mk1 dispatch with a roof box Camper with the Graphics...........
But then other than sticker ...... It doesn't mean I'm associated here..........

Words of wisdom: Internally rust proof the sills and subframe! both skins!!. There's always user serviceable parts inside. "Oh that shouldn't have happened".

My Sticker is wherever my wife "Tidied it up to" after I left it out for too long whilst waiting for a clean van and a dry day :-(

I always see other DispatchExpertScudos and want to give them a wave until I realise some people aren't as enthusiastic about their vans - I think some see them as ust a means to an end! Amateurs!
Happy to be accosted! Maybe we should do another meet, I enjoyed the Monaive one

I still have a bundle of stickers for anyone who wants them.
That includes replacements for any originals that might have been ... relocated
@cliffo - you still at the same address? - happy to fire you one over
@kenbw2 the range of reactions to waving at other vans is hilarious - from completely mystified to people hanging out the window looking for a high five!

Most camper vans of any make used to acknowledge each other on the road. Didn't tend to with motorhomes though.
You would be driving one handed if you tried it now.

My Partner still on occasion will have the urge and wave at other campervans even if we are in car .............
Truck drivers used to do lots of diffrent things like place a newspaper in the window as a particular warning ..............
It's dying out this sence of camaraderie like community has ............
I'm sure we have all noticed the thunbs down sign for speed traps etc ........
And bikers giving each other a wave as they pass...........
Or is it our camaraderie is to be based on snobbishness wheather I wave or give a warning ETC ...........
[Sorry ... It seems if you ride a HD you wave at nobody and turn your nose up at Ricers especially] ...............

My sticker is on the vent blank next to glove box, not sure it's the best place to be recognised from another van!

I must admit I think I have hd a few waves and nods and I've realised after the fact too, what's funny is... while that site "how many left" shows there is not that many on the road, well, I tend to see one at least every time I'm out in mines lol.
Stickers? Didn't know there was some, I may need to have a look.
