Maybe, if you travel south down by Dover, or wherever they geared
up for D day, you'll find the Jeeps leftover from the War.

Semi tractors can last a couple million miles but they get 100 to 300
thousand miles put on them a year... It has less than nothing to do with
rust prevention. Most major carriers wont even hire an owner op with a
truck that's older than 6 or 7 years (due to reliability, insurance and
company image considerations).
