What is Rubber Tramp?
1.
A person that lives in, and creeps around in a vehicle that looks like it's barely held together with rubber bands, chewing gum, and chicken wire. They're often seen parked in the back of supermarket parking lots, or hanging around public parks, alleys, shelters, welfare offices or liquor stores.
Most of the time, the person also looks as completely worn out as the vehicle does.
"Boy, will ya look at that poor rubber tramp cruising on down the street!"
