ford updates the mustang gtd for america s 250th birthday Ford is leaning hard into America's birthday with the latest version of the Mustang GTD Spirit of America edition, a red-white-and-blue tribute arriving just ahead of the United States' 250th anniversary celebrations. If you've been paying attention, this is the second coming of the GTD's Spirit of America package.
