WardsAuto, as we mark our 100th year of publishing, decided to create some "all-time" lists.

We all love lists, right?

We assembled a jury, and voted for the most impactful vehicles of their era by decade. Vehicles of the 20s, 30s, 40s, and so on.

In last week’s episode, we covered the most impactful engines and propulsion systems by decade.

Impactful means technically great, influential in the industry, often benchmarked by rivals.

Our jury was made up of me, Former Editor-in-Chief and Contributor Drew Winter; Autoline Publisher and Wards Contributor John McElroy; Headlight News Editor and Publisher and Wards Contributor Paul Eisenstein; and Matt DeLorenzo, former editor of Road & Track and Autoweek, and current Editor-in-Chief of TightwadGarage.com.

We hope you enjoy the list and will debate it just as we did.
