2021...Nope. 2022...still no. 2023? Bronco

So I'm not a super early reservation like a lot of you (my life was pretty hectic in 2020 and I neither considered buying a new car nor did I realize the Bronco was finally being re-released). Found out from my brother-in-law the morning of Feb 11 and after reading online/watching youtube videos/figuring out the Sport wasn't the "big" Bronco I placed my $100 res the afternoon of Feb 11 and placed the order with my dealer the morning of Feb 12.

So since my build is full of commodity restraint items (BadSquatch 2.7L MIC Tow package) I'm going to be waiting until at least late spring.

I'm an airline pilot who's a gamer and I have a lot of longer layovers...so since I'm married with a kid (love being home but not a ton of gaming time) my trips are my "vacation" where I can (sort of sad to admit) game for 5+ hours/day.

With Forza's release in a few days I was just curious how many other people were picking it up - and primarily picking it up because the Bronco is in it.

Since I'm not getting my Bronco for at least 6 months I figure this'll get me through the long cold winter. Who else is with me?

I'm buying it specifically because of the Bronco. I haven't played it since Horizon #2

Hell yes, and I hate racing games because I suck at them. But Forza's page not only shows the regular Bronco's but also the Bronco DR.

100% Have GamePass, so it was going to be free...but paid the $45 for the premium upgrade and early access. :ROFLMAO:
Early reviews show it looking stunning on the Series X.

I've bought all the Horizons! Love those games. Can't believe how realistic they look now.

I must be older than I thought because right now y'all are speaking Urdu.

For sure, I've always loved the Horizon games, since I got the premium edition I'll get early access and get to start playing it at midnight tonight, can't wait

yup, but not specifically because of the Bronco. I love the Horizon series of games. Already pre-loaded and ready to go.

Curious the logistics of this. You carry a console around in your carry on? I used to haul an Xbox 360 around years ago, was pretty much a pita. Security hated it too.

haha no. I used to carry my PS4 with me but…yeah a real pain.
I have a gaming laptop now. It fits comfortably in my flight kit and is a lot more capable.
