Most of it would be in April/May for East Texas. They'll have hot humid summers, but the rain mostly stops from june-september until it cools off again.
I've had a 3.5 ecoboost for the last decade, and I love the ecoboost motor. It makes so much power at such a low RPM, it's the perfect fit for the Bronco. Would like to keep the 3.5 in the Bronco, but I've driven a few 2.7s and it'll be just fine.
I won't do any jumping or anything that crazy, but I do plan on roadtripping to Utah and driving some of the scenic trails out there - Moab or some of the national parks.
Were you playing KBM or with a controller? I love snowrunner, I've got over 100 hours in it in the last couple months, it's a blast. I play on PC with an Xbox controller and haven't had any issues with the controls.
