Eternal Toyotas?

So we all know that our toyota trucks and 4runners can easily last a couple hundred thousand miles but Im at work and i see a brand new Toyota forklift and i thought to myself I wonder if these forklifts last just as long. Anyone know?

I have worked on some really old yota forklifts. One of the older ones I worked on was a diesel and had over 30,000 hrs on it. I think that equated to about 350,000 miles if it were a car. When I was looking it over I found raspberry seeds on the INSIDE of the air filter. Funny thing is , it is in a steel shop and has been most of its life. Runs great though.
