Classic Heritage, Modern Innovation

From 1968 to 2026 – Reinventing the Mustang Legacy

In the late 1960s, California Ford dealers played a key role in making Mustang a cultural phenomenon. Their vision led to a special edition that captured the essence of West Coast living—the original California Special. This limited-run coupe featured standout graphics, aerodynamic styling, and distinctive red and black accents.

Today, more than five decades later, that legacy is reborn with a fresh perspective: all-electric power, signature design elements, and the unmistakable spirit of Mustang.

Design That Reflects the Ocean

A Color Story That Changes with the Light

Ford’s color and materials team created Rave Blue, a vibrant finish that shifts from light to deep violet-blue, inspired by the ever-changing Pacific waters.

“We wanted something dynamic that reflects the natural beauty of California,” shares Kristen Keenan, Ford color designer. “Rave Blue is bold, energetic, and thoroughly modern—an ideal match for this Mustang.”

All-Electric Muscle with Mustang DNA

Beneath its striking exterior, the 2026 Mustang Mach-E GT California Special is equipped with dual-motor all-wheel drive and Ford’s advanced EV powertrain technology. It delivers the thrilling GT experience you expect—now with zero emissions.

A Tribute to Community, Not Just a Car

Inspired by Real Mustang Enthusiasts

The new California Special is more than just a marketing effort—it’s a true passion project shaped by the Mustang community. Ford designers visited car shows, track events, and owner gatherings to listen to real feedback.

“The Rave Blue wheel accents? That idea came straight from the SEMA show,” explains exterior designer Stefan Taylor. “We watched how owners make their Mustangs unique and wanted this special edition to celebrate that creativity.”

Limited Production, Bold Widebody Style—Now at Benton Ford in Benton, KY

Experience the thrill of the all-new 2026 Mustang RTR Spec 5, now available for order at your trusted local dealership.

Experience the next generation of Mustang excitement with the all-new 2026 Mustang RTR Spec 5. Developed in partnership with drifting legend Vaughn Gittin Jr., this is the most thrilling model yet from RTR Vehicles. With just 50 units produced each year, this exclusive pony car delivers an impressive 870 horsepower and features a distinctive carbon widebody kit designed for standout performance both on the street and at the track.

If you want a Ford performance car that commands attention in Benton and delivers on the track, Benton Ford is your trusted Ford dealer near me in Kentucky.

What Makes the RTR Spec 5 Mustang Unique?

Vaughn Gittin Jr.’s Most Ambitious Build

Starting with the S650-generation Ford Mustang GT, the RTR Spec 5 is built on a Performance Package model equipped with Recaro sport seats. From there, Gittin’s team upgrades nearly every aspect—engine, suspension, bodywork, and interior—to create the flagship of the 2026 Mustang lineup.

This is far more than a cosmetic upgrade—it’s a fully engineered track-ready machine that’s also street legal.

Unmatched Power: Supercharged Performance with 870 Horsepower

RTR Spec 5 vs. Mustang GTD

Beneath the hood is a 3.0L Whipple Stage 2 Supercharger, delivering an astonishing 870 hp and 660 lb-ft of torque. That’s even more horsepower than the ultra-exclusive, $300,000 Mustang GTD—Ford’s track-focused supercar—making the RTR Spec 5 one of the most powerful street-legal Mustangs you can own. And with the RTR/Borla performance exhaust, it sounds every bit as thrilling as it drives.

Key Features:

• Supercharged 3.0L V8
• 870 HP / 660 lb-ft
• Choice of 6-speed manual or 10-speed automatic transmission
• Electronic Drift Brake (a special handbrake co-developed by Ford and Vaughn Gittin Jr. for precise control during spirited driving and drifting)

Handling Upgrades: Confident, Responsive Suspension

RTR’s Street and Track-Ready Setup

Experience the difference when the road curves. The RTR Tactical Performance Suspension features 30-way adjustable coilovers, model-specific sway bars, and specially tuned dampers—delivering a smooth daily ride with the excitement you want on weekends.

Additional Features:

• RTR 20-inch forged wheels
• Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires
• Two-piece high-performance rotors
• Wider stance for enhanced grip and control

Design: Fast Looks, Serious Performance

Widebody Carbon Style, Formula Drift Inspired

Every detail of the RTR Spec 5 is designed to stand out. As RTR’s first full widebody system, it uses composite and carbon fiber panels with built-in cooling vents. It’s bold, functional, and built to turn heads.

Exterior Features Include:

• Carbon fiber front splitter and custom bumper
• Composite flared fenders with integrated vents
• Signature RTR grille
• Decklid spoiler for maximum downforce
• Optional Premium Paint ($7,500) or Paint-to-Sample Custom Color ($15,000)
  Ask us about current pricing and available colors—our team will guide you through every step of the customization process.
• Graphics inspired by Formula Drift Mustangs

Interior: RTR Signature Touches

Designed for the Driver—Featuring Gittin Jr.’s Signature

Step inside the Spec 5 and experience gray and black leather-wrapped Recaro seats, a distinctive RTR shift knob, and an engraved dash plaque signed by Vaughn Gittin Jr.. Even the floor mats proudly display RTR branding.

This interior strikes the ideal balance between comfort and motorsport style.

Production: Limited to 50 Units Per Year

Only 1,900 Units Nationwide – Secure Yours at Benton Ford in Benton, KY

The 2025 Bronco Stroppe Edition isn’t just another trim level—it’s a true collector’s item, with only 1,900 units available nationwide. This special two-door Bronco honors legendary desert racer Bill Stroppe and is the only 2025 model featuring a 2.7L V6 engine, all wrapped in a bold, heritage-inspired design.

At Benton Ford, your trusted Kentucky dealership in Benton, we’re excited to offer this unique off-road legend alongside the full 2026 Ford lineup, including popular models like the 2025 F-150, Black Widow Edition, and a wide selection of used cars in Kentucky.

A Design That Shouts Stroppe, Inside and Out

Classic Baja Colors Meet Modern Off-Road Muscle

The Stroppe color scheme is designed to stand out. Inspired by Ford’s Baja racing history, the Bronco Stroppe Edition showcases an eye-catching four-tone palette:

• Code Orange body paint
• Oxford White accents
• Atlas Blue hardtop
• Matte black hood and tailgate

Distinctive fender badges display a cactus icon and “Stroppe Edition” lettering. You’ll also notice heritage-style, squared-off fender flares—a unique feature for this model outside the Heritage lineup.

The Only Two-Door Bronco with the 2.7L V6

Small Footprint, Big Power

For 2025, Ford discontinued most two-door V6 Broncos—but the Stroppe Edition stands apart. It’s the last two-door Bronco equipped with the 330-horsepower 2.7L EcoBoost V6 and a 10-speed automatic transmission.

While the four-cylinder version offers competitive performance, the V6 delivers robust torque and a smooth, automatic-only driving experience—perfect for both trails and everyday roads.

Off-Road Ready with Wildtrak and Raptor Features

Engineered for Crawling, Climbing, and Turning Heads

The 2025 Bronco Stroppe Edition stands out for its capability, thanks to advanced components borrowed from the Wildtrak and Raptor models:

• Sasquatch Package: 35-inch tires, high-clearance suspension, and front and rear locking differentials
• Sway bar disconnect for enhanced wheel articulation
• Raptor-style side steps for greater clearance and durability
• HOSS 3.0 suspension with 2.5-inch FOX internal bypass shocks

This Bronco isn’t just about looks—it’s fully equipped to handle Kentucky’s rugged terrain and beyond.

Interior Details That Celebrate Stroppe

Red Stitching, White Dash, and a Purposeful Layout

Inside, you’ll notice design cues inspired by the Bronco’s racing heritage. The white dashboard stands out against red-stitched grab handles and seat accents, creating a crisp, performance-oriented feel. Ford’s decision to leave out a wireless phone charger keeps distractions to a minimum, something enthusiasts may appreciate.

You’ll still enjoy:

• A 12-inch touchscreen
• Heated front seats
• Premium materials and rugged finishes

This interior is stripped back and focused on function, yet includes all the essentials you need for comfort and convenience.

Why the Stroppe Edition Stands Out for Kentucky Drivers

Exclusive, Capable, and Adventure-Ready

If you’re searching Ford dealerships near me for something truly unique, the 2025 Bronco Stroppe Edition is a rare opportunity. Its limited production, classic design, and off-road prowess make it a standout choice—perfect for exploring Western Kentucky’s backroads or showing off at local events.

With only 1,900 units produced, this Bronco is a rare sight on the road.

Comparing Ford Bronco Trim Levels: Which Bronco Is Right for You?

When searching for the best Ford Bronco trim level, it’s important to understand what sets each model apart. Ford offers a range of Bronco trims—from the versatile Big Bend and stylish Outer Banks to the rugged Badlands and the high-performance Raptor—each designed for different types of drivers and adventures.

• Big Bend: Perfect for those who want a balance of comfort and capability, the Big Bend trim adds convenience features and upgraded technology to the classic Bronco formula.
• Outer Banks: If you prefer a Bronco that stands out in town but can still handle the trails, the Outer Banks offers premium touches like leather-trimmed seats and advanced driver-assist features.
• Badlands: Built for serious off-road enthusiasts, the Badlands trim brings advanced 4×4 systems, front stabilizer bar disconnect, and extra ground clearance—making it a top choice for tackling Kentucky’s toughest terrain.
• Raptor: For drivers who demand maximum power and off-road performance, the Bronco Raptor boasts a turbocharged V6, FOX Live Valve shocks, and unique styling that commands attention wherever you go.
• Heritage Edition and Stroppe Edition: These special editions combine classic Bronco styling with modern engineering, offering unique color schemes and exclusive features for collectors and fans alike.

How to Choose the Right Bronco Trim

Choosing between the Bronco Badlands vs Outer Banks, or deciding if a special edition Bronco is right for you, depends on your lifestyle and driving needs. If you prioritize daily comfort with occasional off-road trips, the Outer Banks may be ideal. For those who crave adventure and trail capability, the Badlands or Raptor delivers unmatched performance.

No matter which Ford Bronco trim level you choose, you’ll enjoy legendary capability, advanced technology, and head-turning style. At Benton Ford, our team is here to help you compare Bronco trims, explore available packages, and find the perfect fit for your next adventure.

Coming Soon to Benton Ford – Kentucky’s Home for Performance and Power

After a short break, the king of American muscle cars is making a powerful comeback. The 2026 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500—or its soon-to-be-announced successor—is preparing to take the spotlight once more with a new platform, rumored upgraded engine, and even more advanced engineering. At Benton Ford, we’re thrilled to help drivers throughout Western Kentucky and nearby communities get ready for one of the most exciting releases in the 2026 Ford lineup.

A New Era for an American Icon

The GT500 Returns—But Possibly Under a New Name

The Mustang Shelby GT500 has always led the way in Ford performance. First launched in 1967, it quickly earned its reputation as the classic American pony car. Now, after its 2022 pause, the GT500 is set to return for 2026—though it may wear a different name. Ford has filed trademarks for “Dark Horse Boss” and “Boss”, suggesting a possible rebranding. No matter the name, you can count on this next-generation GT500 to be the most impressive Mustang outside of the GTD.

Built on the S650 Mustang Platform

Stronger, Smarter, Sharper

The upcoming GT500 is set to use the S650 Mustang platform, which debuted in 2024. This improved design builds on the popular S550 and offers:

• A more rigid chassis
• Enhanced suspension tuning
• Quicker steering response
• Updated exterior styling

You can also look forward to larger brakes, suspension tuned for track performance, and aerodynamic upgrades to complement the supercharged engine.

Under the Hood: Enter the “Legend”

What Will Power the 2026 Mustang GT500?

Although official details are still pending, reliable sources indicate a new engine called “Legend” could be featured. The previous GT500 used a 5.2L Predator V8 with 760 horsepower, but Ford may have an even more powerful option in the works.

Potential Powertrain Options:

• An updated 5.2L Predator V8, similar to the F-150 Raptor R
• A dual-clutch transmission, replacing the 10-speed automatic
• Possibility: Supercharged 7.3L Megazilla V8, rumored to produce over 1,000 horsepower

No matter which engine Ford chooses, expect a significant jump in performance—well above the 500-hp Mustang Dark Horse, but not reaching the $300,000 Mustang GTD.

Who It’s For (and Who It Will Beat)

A Mustang That Strikes the Perfect Balance Between Street and Track

With the Mustang GTD taking the spotlight as the halo model, the 2026 GT500 is designed to offer track-level performance at a more approachable price point. It’s built for enthusiasts who crave serious muscle but don’t want to step into the exotic car category.

Key Competitors:

• Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 (discontinued)
• Dodge Challenger Hellcat (discontinued)
• Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing
• BMW M4 CS
• Corvette Z06
• Mercedes-AMG GT Coupe

Very few competitors, whether domestic or international, are expected to match the GT500’s unique blend of power, heritage, and everyday drivability.

Deep Dive: GT500 Exterior and Interior Design

The 2026 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 is more than just a powerhouse—its design is a bold statement that honors its legendary past while pushing modern style and aerodynamics to new heights.

Aggressive Exterior: Built for Performance and Presence

The GT500’s exterior is instantly recognizable, blending classic muscle cues with cutting-edge enhancements:

• Aerodynamic Front Fascia: Up front, oversized air intakes and a pronounced chin spoiler channel airflow for both cooling and downforce. The hood features sculpted bulges and functional heat extractors, signaling the supercharged power beneath and evoking the aggressive attitude of past GT500s.
• Signature Racing Stripes: True to Shelby tradition, broad dual stripes run the length of the body, available in a range of contrasting colors for a custom touch. These stripes not only honor the original Shelby GT500 but also make a bold, unmistakable statement on the road.
• Wide Stance and Flared Fenders: The GT500 sits lower and wider than standard Mustangs, with muscular fender flares that accommodate staggered ultra-high-performance tires and unique, lightweight wheels—often available in carbon fiber for those seeking the ultimate in style and function.
• Quad Exhaust and Rear Diffuser: The rear is dominated by quad exhaust tips and an aggressive diffuser, maximizing both the visual drama and aerodynamic efficiency.

Refined Interior: Where Heritage Meets Innovation

Step inside, and the GT500’s cabin is a blend of race-inspired functionality and premium comfort:

• Performance Seats: Deeply bolstered sport seats, available in leather or suede-trimmed options, keep you planted during spirited driving. Optional contrast stitching and embroidered Shelby logos add a bespoke touch.
• Premium Materials: The interior features real aluminum or carbon fiber trim, soft-touch surfaces, and customizable ambient lighting, creating an environment that feels both modern and authentically Mustang.
• Digital Displays: A fully digital instrument cluster and expansive center display deliver customizable, driver-centric information—blending classic analog inspiration with the latest technology.
• Unique Accents: Details like color-matched seat belts, Shelby-branded sills, and special edition plaques reinforce the GT500’s exclusivity.

Customization and Personalization

Ford knows that every enthusiast wants their GT500 to reflect their personality:

• Extensive Color Palette: Choose from exclusive paint finishes—including new metallics and heritage-inspired hues—plus a variety of stripe, wheel, and brake caliper color options.
• Interior Accents: Select from different seat materials, stitching colors, and interior trim packages to make your cockpit truly your own.
• Performance Packages: Opt for available carbon fiber wheels, upgraded tires, or track-oriented aero kits to tailor your GT500 for street or circuit.

A Bridge Between Heritage and Modern Muscle

The 2026 GT500 blends classic Shelby design with Ford’s latest technology, featuring heritage stripes, a sculpted hood, a bold stance, and a race-inspired interior alongside advanced materials and digital features. This fusion of tradition and innovation makes the GT500 a standout American muscle car in Benton, KY, and beyond.

Design and Features: What We Expect

Classic Muscle, Modern Execution

Signature racing stripes, a vented hood, wide stance, and aggressive aero will define this new GT500 variant. Inside, look for performance-inspired seats, digital displays, and intuitive performance toggles. Ford has focused on blending track-ready capability with daily livability—and the GT500 should strike that balance perfectly.

Pricing and Release Timeline

How Much Will It Cost? When Can You Order?

With prototypes now spotted around Dearborn, MI, the 2026 Mustang GT500 is on track for an official debut soon. Pricing is expected to start over $100,000, well below the GTD but firmly in elite muscle territory.

Celebrating Six Decades of Bronco Brilliance at Benton Ford in Benton, KY

The 2026 Ford Bronco 60th Anniversary Package first look is more than a nod to history—it’s a bold celebration of rugged design, trail-ready upgrades, and signature Ford performance. Now previewing at Benton Ford, your trusted Kentucky dealership, this limited edition Bronco captures everything drivers love about the classic SUV—while honoring the original 1966 Bronco with retro-inspired details. Let’s look first into the 2026 Ford Bronco 60th Anniversary Package First Look in this blog.

---

A Trail Icon Reimagined for 2026

Built on the Outer Banks Trim—With Added Muscle

The 60th Anniversary Bronco is based on the well-appointed Outer Banks trim and comes standard with the Sasquatch off-road package, delivering unmatched capability across dirt, mud, snow, and sand. Drivers can choose between:

• A turbocharged 2.3L EcoBoost I-4 engine, or
• An available 2.7L twin-turbo V6, offering serious torque and horsepower.

Both powertrains pair with a 10-speed automatic transmission and include electronic-locking front and rear differentials, ensuring off-road domination from day one.

---

Vintage-Inspired Design That Stands Out

60 Years Later—Still Making a Statement

Ford designers went all in to channel the original Bronco’s spirit. From retro wheels to color-contrasting grilles, this SUV makes a bold impression both on the road and on the trail.

Exterior Highlights Include:

• 17-inch Gravity Gray wheels with Vermilion Red center caps
• 35-inch Goodyear Territory RT tires
• Grille painted in Warm Alloy with Vermilion “Bronco” lettering
• 60th Anniversary bodyside decals in contrasting hues
• Optional paint schemes: Wimbledon White with Vermilion Red accents or vice versa

Every detail—from the wheel center cap etched with “1966” to the Easter egg accents—honors Bronco’s roots while pushing its future forward.
