This is pretty amusing. You can check it our yourselves but yesteryears cars had an average life of 100-120K miles. And a lot of people bought them new and drove them to death. No roll back there. 12K tune ups and 2K oil changes. Todays average car is expected to last at least 200K with no major repairs.
As far as the old tractors. Bet there are few if any Farmall M's or H's out there that haven't had at least 4-5 engine rebuilds if not more. Want to impress me? Show me an M with a independent party certification that has run 10K hours without an engine rebuild. I know a lot of tractors, diesels, that were build in the 60's and beyond have over 10K hours without any work being done on the engine.
