Stands for
Redneck Social Elite.
Refers to cruising urban
redneck young people who own and conspicuously wear/drive expensive (but, to the rest of the world, tack) items. When male, the RSE individual generally hangs out in a circle of automobiles in an empty parking lot at night, a
scene which necessitates costly automobile accessories and a minimum of two 24K gold necklaces. When female, the RSE individual spends much of her spare change on tanning bed minutes (usually at an establishment that also rents adult videos) and other
beauty-related expenses. She is usually dating one or more truck club members. The RSE are rarely seen within either the inner city or truly rural areas.
