What Does “LTD” Stand For?
What Does “LTD” Stand For?
Automotive trim packages have a hierarchy, identifying which models are basic all the way up to the feature-packed examples. Back in 1965, Ford opted to name one particular high-level trim “Limited”, which shortened nicely to “LTD” on the 1965 Ford Galaxie. By the late 1970s, the Galaxie moniker was gone, but the “LTD” trim level lived on.
Shown here is the 1965 Ford Galaxie 500 LTD four-door hardtop.
