xCruzo Brief
A reader question turned into a debate about what “best car ever” really means: a subjective ranking with no rules. The article notes that the question can get conflated with “dream car,” then asks experts to name their picks. A rally champion and stunt driver points to a 1928 4.5L Bentley tourer. Matt Anderson, curator of transportation at The Henry Ford, argues the Ford Model T delivered its design goals and reshaped the automobile into everyday life for most Americans. David Schmidt of the Society of Automotive Historians selects Locomobile, citing engineering quality and its record of winning Vanderbilt Cup races between 1904 and 1937.
