But you’re not a complete redneck without the right vehicle. Here’s a brief rundown of the top five redneck cars out today.
Ford Bronco
Any Bronco after 1978 is a departure from the original redneckness of the vehicle. For classic redneckness, you have to go for a pre-1978 one that came complete with a rifle rack and fender spats.
1977 Pontiac Trans Am SE
With an emphasis on power, noise and obnoxiousness, the T/A is an example of the glory days of redneckery. It’s a lousy car, which fits the bill perfectly.
2002 Dale Earnhardt Signature Edition Chevrolet Monte Carlo
You really have to love a celebrity to get something like this. Sure, Mr. Earnhardt died tragically, but taking a massive pinch out of your pocket to forever have a keepsake of him in your garage is going a bit overboard. This is for the rednecks with the green.
Anything with duct tape
Does this really need explaining?
Ford Mustang
A 70’s Mustang was all about size and weight—kind of reflective of the American people. It is the car for rednecks because of why they buy it. It can’t be because of the performance or fuel efficiency and they’re not even really that cool. The 60’s ones were, but that was forty years ago.
Our take? Y'all did notice we didn't include any of those foreign makes, did you? Obviously, if it isn’t American, then it isn’t a true redneck car.
