Do you notice if there are two other Toyotas waiting at a stop light and are like, “hi bros” or, if someone cuts you off, are you like, “WTF, dude? Where is the Honda solidarity”?

I felt more solidarity when I drove a Subaru. Now I drive a Toyota and don’t have the energy to feel kinship with every other person.
I have a 2003 toyota camry with 250,000 miles on it and no muffler, so yes, when i see another 2003 camry, i tend to feel a little connection with them
Anytime I see a Honda CRV, I assume it’s a soccer mom who wanted something slightly sportier than a minivan.
When I see it’s a male driving it, I was to say yes bro and give them a high five.
When it’s a male driving the CRV and it’s in baby blue — I stop looking in the mirror.
If you really want kinship buy a Jeep Wrangler.
For me, my ride is plain vanilla and pretty valueless (people driving it don't tend to have much choice/options otherwise) but there's a gentlemanly nod in play, for sure. A blend of "Hey! You got one too!" and "Yeah, I know man, feels bad."
For me, it's like meeting an ex's ex; yeah, I understand what you're going through, it's not how many times you fall, but how many times you get back up...
Unless it's a field sobriety test, and then both matter.
I drove a Miata for a short time and other Miata drivers would give piece signs or make the headlights go up and down at me.
Maybe if it's a less common model. If you're talking about just the make (i.e. people that drive Toyotas, but that includes the Camry, RAV4, Sienna, Tundra, etc) then no.
My username is based on the car I drive. So yeah lol.
