About This Quiz

Get your lassos ready because you're going to need them for this quiz! Let's live out your childhood fantasy of being a cowboy. Do you wax your truck more than you brush your horse? Once we see your skills in the saddle, we'll be able to make an accurate guess about the type of truck that you own.

Trek around the ranch with us tending to the animals. You might be able to wrestle a steer in under five seconds, but can you round up a group of hungry chickens without losing your mind? Being a cowboy involves far more than riding a horse around the plains while herding cattle.

Cowboys have all sorts of skills that might break those of us that consider our cubicles our own little farms. From building fences to fixing the ranch's equipment, cowboys are a tough and rare breed. The way you handle yourself in chaps will go a long way towards knowing what truck you drive.

Dust off your spurs and shine up your boots. Getting in character might unnerve your neighbors a little, but you'll be in the perfect mindset to answer each question like you were hanging out around the Bonanza ranch. Let's giddy-up and go!
