The 2025 Ford Mustang GTD is a vehicle that rides the very edge of what's physically possible in a street-legal car. With unbelievable power, advanced materials, and a high-tech cockpit, it's a driving experience like no other. Here's why the Mustang GTD puts the "super" in supercar. Experience Unleashed Power in the 2025 Ford Mustang GTD Cutting-Edge Power When the Ford Performance team designed the 5.2-liter supercharged engine at the heart of the Mustang GTD, they knew they had something special.  The power plant delivers a staggering 815 horsepower to the rear wheels, which is a major part of what enabled the Mustang GTD to deliver on the promise of a sub-7 minute lap time at the grueling Nürburgring circuit. But offering the most horsepower ever found on a street-legal Mustang also required innovation never before released in a production model. Keeping the engine lubricated under the strain of high-g turns and required that it be fed its oil by a dry-sump oil system, the first of its kind on a street-legal Mustang. Weight and Aerodynamics Maximizing performance at the highest level doesn't just require a mighty motor. It also means keeping weight down and properly distributed. Ford pulled high-strength, low-weight materials from every source they could find, including decommissioned F-22 Raptor fighter jets, to make the Mustang GTD. The driveshaft is made of carbon fiber. The exhaust system is made of titanium. Even the paddle shifters and serial plate are made from titanium. Aerodynamics also plays a huge role in maintaining performance. At the kind of track speeds the Mustang GTD can achieve, a rear-wheel drive car's nose tends to want to rise. Ford carefully tuned the aerodynamics using advanced concepts like vented front fenders to cool the standard Brembo brakes and reduce both lift and drag. They also included a massive carbon-fiber spoiler to help keep the nose firmly planted even at top speed. A Commanding Cockpit Sit behind the wheel of the Mustang GTD and you'll find an expanse of screens designed for maximum information flow. A 12.4-inch digital cluster and 13.2-inch center infotainment screen are customizable and powered by the Unreal Engine for next-level graphics. Gauges can display everything from G-forces and air/fuel ratios to engine oil pressure and oil temperatures. The result? The ability to fine-tune your driving based on vehicle conditions. The Mustang GTD also has a neat trick when it's time to take to the track. In an industry first, the Mustang GTD can be lowered by almost 40mm from inside the cockpit, helping maximize performance on the track. An available semi-active suspension and hydraulic control system help maximize performance, soaking up bumps both on the track and off. Power like this has to be driven to be believed.

Since 1966, the Bronco badge has meant one thing: true off-road capability. The 2024 Ford Bronco shows that while the technology has evolved, the core of what makes a Bronco a Bronco – raw power, durability, and adventure-ready spirit – has never changed. Off-Road Features That Define the 2024 Ford Bronco Unstoppable 4x4 Performance You need something that matches your ambition while out there on the trail. That's why the Bronco offers three turbocharged engine options designed to power through every adventure. The first is a 2.3-liter in-line four-cylinder engine that produces 300 horsepower. Then there's the 330-horsepower 2.7 V6 engine for those tougher challenges. The last option, a 3.0-liter V6, is the most powerful, delivering about 418 horsepower. With all that power, you'll want to make sure it gets to the wheels just right. You can choose a seven-speed manual transmission for total control or a 10-speed auto if you prefer smoother shifts. Other 4x4 highlights include an impressive ground clearance of 11.6 inches, electronic locking differentials, 33.5 inches of water fording, and the angles you need to tackle steep inclines and sharp drops. Undercarriage Protection The undercarriage shouldn't be on your mind when you're deep into the adventure. After all, the joys of off-roading come from making memories, not making repairs at the side of the trail. The 2024 Bronco has you covered with tough steel bash plates that guard critical components like the fuel tank, engine, transmission, and transfer case. Interior Water Management Go mudding without holding back. The 2024 Bronco's interior can handle the mess. There's no need to remove the carpet; just let the mud fly in, then hose it all out like it never happened. And if you're worried about the switches, seats, and whatnot, don't be. It's a Bronco; everything's been thoughtfully engineered to thrive in the wild. Your only concern is choosing what trail to conquer next. The HOSS Systems For confident control and hardy handling, choose from one of the four High-Performance Off-road Stability Suspension systems. Each system offers a unique ability. For instance,  the HOSS 1.0, built for high-speed trail running, features a passive damping system, a solid rear axle with long-travel springs, and twin forged alloy A-arms for superior strength and durability. On the other end of the spectrum, the HOSS 4.0 pushes off-road performance to the extreme with Live Valve technology with position-sensitive damping, integrated front reservoirs, and remote rear reservoirs. The advanced system is exclusive to the top-of-the-line Bronco Raptor. We've just covered a tiny fraction of the 2024 Bronco's off-road goodies. For more information and to take one for a test drive, visit Murray Ford of Starke in Starke, FL.

Top-Notch Technology The SYNC 4A infotainment system is just one of the many impressive tech features you'll find in the Edge, and it comes standard in every model with hands-free calling, wireless streaming audio, and a 12-inch touchscreen, while navigation assistance is available. Connecting to the internet and charging devices is made simple with the 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot, 12-volt outlet, and dual USB ports, all of which are also standard, and the available Bose audio system features 12 speakers. Safety for All Occasions Also impressive are all the standard driver-assist features offered with this edition, like the Auto High-Beam Headlamps, the Rear View Camera, the Blind Spot Information System (BLIS), Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking, and Post-Collision Braking. Select models also come with Adaptive Cruise Control for more leisurely road trips, Evasive Steering Assist if you need extra help steering around obstacles, and the Enhanced Active Park Assist System.
