Southern, or at least Okie-speak meaning an older or at least "rundown" car. My Dad used it all the time.
Well if this old hoopie/hoopy lasts another couple of months I'm gonna trade it off.

In Alliance, OH if you go to the Carnation Festival, you will see lots of hoopies wearing flannels, cut offs, greasy ass hair, not shaved face, and some might even have about 8 teeth or less.

Origin: Western Pennsylvania, Eastern Ohio, Northern West Virginia where steel mills were prominent.
(n) A person who has a very low standard of living, gives absolutely 0 fucks about anything. Hoopies are often immune to illness and disease despite their inability to properly shower and brush their teeth. Although hoopies tend to be on the more unattractive side, they have a rather high level of self confidence, take pride in some sort of trade (that they are usually exceptional in), are usually above willing to help someone in need, and are uncomfortably comfortable around strangers... as in they say what they think and often times leave the house wearing stained or tattered clothing. Some women will often reject wearing a bra. Although this is not always the case, most hoopies lack strong ethnic traits and often have lightly colored hair and eyes.
“This hoopie guy said he would change my breaks for just the cost of parts”
“Hannah’s mom is a real big hoopie, we’re talking flannels, drinks beer, farts in public, and she makes these really good pizza things on the campfire that wrapped up in foil.”

see above definition, but anywhere in the Pennsylvania-West Virginia-Ohio tri-state region. Usually associated with trailer parks, dirty hair, and heavy metal band tee-shirts. See trucks and dirtbikes and hoopie mall.
If you drive down to Brady's Run in the spring, past the trialer park, you'll pass all them hoopies out with their 70's era cars on blocks and their Natty Ice.

An insult (worse than hillbilly) given to residents of West Virginia. According to history, the city of East Liverpool OH, across the river from WV, was an important maker of pottery. West Virginia residents looking for work in the area were only skilled enough to bang together the metal strips that would make the hoops needed for barrel construction.
We're playing the Mountaineers in basketball? They're a bunch of stupid hoopies.

Hoopy is at the bottom of the northern panhandle of WV, Wetzel County. Also used in the Pittsburgh area meaning south of the 'Burgh, out in the country.
Hey, are you goin' down hoopy this weekend to do some 4-wheelin'?
