Hayseed Turnip Truck

Hayseed Turnip Truck is a male Earth pony in the Apple family who first appears in Sweet and Elite.
==Design and development==
Hayseed Turnip Truck is an Earth pony with a beige-colored coat, dark yellow freckles, a two-tone brown mane and tail, brown eyes, and a cutie mark of three turnips. He also has a prominent overbite and wears a dirty shirt and green trucker's cap with a turnip on the front.
His name comes from the slang term "hayseed", another term for a bumpkin or generally unsophisticated person, and the idiom "fell off the turnip truck", meaning someone who is gullible or naïve.
