Which of those things aren't bogan?

AFAIK the majority of bogans live in Queensland.

I would not restrict their vehicle choice to Holdens, any pickup weighing more than a couple of tonnes that towers over normal sedans is equally acceptable.

Uncouth disrespectful & inconsiderate ayholes exist all over….  They are just in smaller numbers & have not yet secured themselves a place in cultural folklore !!! 
 

There are some on this forum who express similar tendencies when voicing their bigoted opinions.

As I had to Google what bogan meant I can't possibly be one.

 

And I don't like or do any of the afore mentioned things.

It has to be noted that is an 80's or 90's bogan - different kettle of fish now as noted in a different thread. Many have lots of money, best cars and renovated houses, and are less distinctive or different from others now. A coffee shop where the so called cool people went used to be a rarity - now they are on every corner and bogans and everyone else are the customers. Except me - don't like coffee.

I think a bogan isn't simply say an unemployed dope smoker or whatever. I associate bogans as being active, fun, cars skillful with hands. Many of those are doing well. I don't see many old time bogans but maybe less in Melbourne.
