Referring to that tell-tale sunburn on the back of the neck caused by wearing a John Deere or Cat tracker cap while plowing the fields. Generally acquired in conjunction with the "farmer's tan." Not necessarily limited to the rural Southern male, but closely associated with this particular species of human.
Kenny Chesney's girl may think his tracktor and farmer's tan are sexy, but it's his authentic redneck-ness that really turns her on.

Originally used as a term to describe a term to describe a white person who worked outdoors. The sun made his neck red.

This has become a slander for low class people who do not want the country taken over by minorities, liberals and non whites. These people are vocal with their opinions.

Southern cracker who proudly flies the confederate flag because they are too ignorant to realize the confederates were the losers.
