I’ll be honest and disclose that I did not originally want a Ford Bronco. My husband was pushing hard to buy one when they were announced that they were in process of being produced again two years ago or so. I didn’t have anything against this, but they just didn’t strike me as family vehicles. Eventually, he talked me into it and we were placed on a wait list to buy one of the first ones released.
And now? Well, let’s just say I LOVE my Ford Bronco! And, yes, I did say my because I have pretty much taken it over from my husband – much to his displeasure! And we haul our family of four all around in our Bronco with no troubles. The girls love our new ride, also!
Here’s my sweet husband and I on the first day of our Bronco-ownership. Look at him – the look of a man who thought HE was getting a new Bronco. It only took a day or two for him to learn he bought one for his wife.
What Does the Word Bronco Mean?
In order to play this game, you probably need to truly understand that the word bronco comes from Spanish and implies a rough or more spirited horse – a horse that bucks a lot, in other words.
What is Buck Buck Bronco?
You know how some people paint rocks and then hide them around parks and neighborhoods for others to find? And then the finder can either choose to keep the fun, colorful rock or hide it elsewhere for someone else to find? Well, Buck Buck Bronco follows the same concept.
This game is modeled after a similar game for Jeep owners. These games build community among owners of the same model of vehicle. It is purely for fun and is purely optional!
How to Play Buck Buck Bronco Game?
It’s simple to play Buck Buck Bronco! Ford Bronco owners keep a few Bronco accessories with them in their Broncos. And when they see another Bronco, they place a rubber horse (bronco) on the other Bronco. Sometimes, the bronco hiders leave a sweet note, complimenting the Bronco or just saying to have a nice day. Other times, the hider leaves no note. It is really just up to you whether you want to add a note or not.
If you find a plastic or rubber Bronco, you are encouraged to take your picture with it and post it on your social media with the hashtag #buckbuckbronco or #buckyeah. You can also post directly in certain Facebook groups dedicated to this fun game – such as the Buck Buck Bronco Facebook group.
Most of the bronco toys are typical 2-3 inch rubber horses – like the kind toddlers use as bath toys. But some people also get plush horses or plastic horses.
Below is a list of best Amazon horses.
We have done the work to narrow down the best rubber, plastic, or plush horses for you!

These are the gift of choice for us at this time as you can see in the images on this post. I find them to be an actual functional gift that someone could actually get some use out of.
Understand Not Everyone Likes Buck Buck Bronco Games
I’ve seen a fair share of people in my Facebook groups say that they watched as a Bronco owner walked to his/her car in a parking lot and threw a game gift down on the ground before driving off. The gift givers were saddened and surprised at the unappreciative reactions. Just understand not all people enjoy these types of games. And some people don’t want a stranger near their vehicle. It’s just a gamble when you pick a Bronco in the parking lot!
But We Love This Game!
Our girls have really gotten a kick out of getting out of the car and bucking other Broncos in parking lots. Our youngest daughter will even sneak one out of the car and buck our own Bronco in the garage – as seen below! Ha! We’ve had to make sure we keep a supply of the coozies in our own Bronco at all times!
Have fun with the bucking a Bronco game, friends! I hope you have the best time!
