单词：hoopties
A hoopty can be anything from a '78 Cadillac Brogham with the panels missing in front of the brake lights (but replaced on only one side with duct tape), to a fine purple two-year old Hyundai Elantra with three spinner hubcaps and a vanity plate that reads BBY GRL.
The term has also been used in certain circles as an insult to one's boy or girlfriend, as in [scrub] or [hoochie mama].
