Home on the range

The BR Lightning Ranch recently hosted a media ride-and-drive event for the new-for-2015 Ford F-150 pickup. Located in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, the family-owned ranch served as a picturesque setting to put the Fords through their paces on pavement and over an off-road course that gave them a four-wheel-drive workout. All of that was all in a day’s work for the ranch. After all, BR Lightning is known not only for its horseback trails, but it also stages rodeo events as well as such exotic activities as, yes, camel training.
