What's the difference between White Trash, Hillbillies, and Rednecks?

Me and my country club buddies were having a good chuckle discussing poor people over cocktails and some BLTs, when we found ourselves in a debate on what made some one white trash and what made some one a redneck or a hillbilly.
My argument is that White Trash folks are your typical poor white people who wear wife beaters, Jimmy Graham jerseys, camo shorts, chains and have a love for urban culture and music. They are usually seen driving Yellow dodge trucks or mustangs(ex. Kenner Brah)
A redneck to me, is someone who is poor, wears nascar stuff, hates Obama and urban culture, drives an older model ford or chevy, and drinks Busch Light (ex. Beauregard parish trash)
And I really think a hillbilly is just redneck that lives in Tennessee, Kentucky, North Carolina, or West Virginia
Thoughts, OT? We need some help here

WTF is a hillybillie?

You have it right, I think.
Hillbillies have a slightly more unique culture and accent due to the isolation of the Appalachians, but they are by and by rednecks.

Pretty close I think.
Rednecks are probably into southern culture by nature. White trash can be ghetto (including the infamous hick rapper breed).

Yeah, I'd say these terms aren't mutually exclusive. Rednecks can be white trash, and hillbillies are just rednecks with a different geographical heritage.

A person that considers themselves one of these will look down on the other two.
That's the only difference.

White trash = meth
Hillbillies= moonshine
Rednecks = Budweiser
Hillbillies= moonshine
Rednecks = Budweiser

Nail. Head.
ETA: it's funny that you think just because you play golf that you aren't one of the aforementioned classes. Me and my buddies play golf almost every weekend (5-6 every weekend with 5-6 more that play about once a month with us) and we are all rednecks.

If you had to hang out with 1 of the 3, which one would you choose?

That actually sums it up pretty damn well.

Disagree. A redneck doesnt have to be poor.

This. I'm a redneck and I'm quite well off for my age.

The only difference between a hillbilly and red neck is location. White trash can be found everywhere. Hillbilly, redneck and white trash are not synonymous.

That's true, Elvis and Dale Earnhardt were rednecks and they were loaded

Idk about Elvis, dude was definitely slightly on the trashy side but he had some class too.
