    I have a bratty little '68 Beetle, Baja conversion in authentic John Deere colors, "John Deere 1800" decals, brush guards, pintle hook, LOUD straight 4-1 exhaust topped with a big honking tractor-exhaust flapper. YeeeHaw! It's a hoot. If there's interest, maybe I'll post a picture when the snow thaws off her (no heater - brrr)

    I hear the expression turkey when I was in Canada and assumed you used it also.

    She loks far better than your fryer but, as I keep telling you you're sex mad. Why not avoid temptation and send me all the pictures you have. I'm here to help you, day and night.

    Rednecks must have a lot of ingenuity to create this kind of stuff. This looks like something I would make!

    I do not think this simple question should go unanswered. It raises a vast amount of sociological, anthropological, ethical and descriptive issues.

    OK. Here's an urban northerners shot. Please, real rednecks, and those situated closer, correct and adjust:

    Rednecky adj. (adj form of redneck)

    1) having the qualities of or being an object suitable for use by or likely to be purchased or created by a redneck (ie. a socially conservative rural USA citizen, individual, probably with not more than a high school diploma and probably part of the working class or unemployed and generally. Please note: this is a cliche description with many exceptions.)

    2) having a combination of these qualities: tacky, practical, ad hoc, loud in colors, patriotic, and having traditional values. Often with details of blunt humor - sexual, political, etc.

    3) informed by an aesthetic of down to earth who gives a shit how it looks common sense practicality. Function over form on one level. But on another level the form is central since it proclaims indifference to aesthetics and a denial of pretentiousness. An anti-elite quality. An underlying proclamation that everyone's shit stinks and that most aesthetics is an expensive and pompous denial of this fact.

    Close but with the socio-economic thing, redneckery transcends financial boundaries( state and national borders too).

    links to international rednecks? (I'm not testing your theory, but curious to see examples)

    They look like, as she said, fake images. And not images of international rednecks, ones from not the US.
