Yes tiz a :
Studebaker Truck
When America entered the conflict, the nations industrial base quickly shifted to making the implements of war. Studebaker's contribution to the war effort would be in the production of three principle items, trucks, aircraft engines and a little tracked vehicle called the Weasel. Shortly before the war, Studebaker had already started limited production of its US6 truck for the Army. When passenger car production was halted on January 31, 1942, truck assembly was stepped up reaching 4,000 per month by March. Powered by a six cylinder Hercules engine, the US6 trucks were produced in four and six wheel drive versions. 200,000 of these rugged vehicles were built between 1941 and 1945 for the US and Soviet Armies and approximately half of Studebakers trucks went to the Soviet Union under Lend Lease. They were so abundant there that �Studebaker� became Russian slang for truck.

I have my shoulder to the wheel,
my nose to the grindstone,
I've put my best foot forward,
I've put my back into it,
I'm gritting my teeth,
Now I find I can't do any work in this position!
As I understand it, that style of large "Tropical Cab" USA built WW!! truck was made by several manufacturers. At the opening of the Road Transport Hall of fame some 23 years ago, I was told by Military vehicle enthusiasts that it was not possible to identify which Company built a particular vehicle.
Thirty-odd years ago, there was the remains of one of these dumped at the rubbish tip on Point Stuart Station, half way between Darwin and Arnhem land.
About the Studebaker/Studbraker/Stupidbaker, It looks nothing like the World War 2 six-wheel-drive Studebakers I drove during my National Service in the Army in 1965. I was very embarrassed one day to get one stuck up on a large clump of tussock, until the mechanics told me the rear diff on this vehicle was broken and they had removed the jack shaft from the intermediate axle to the rear.
I am not surprised at the name being a general name for trucks in Russia. In the early years of the 20th Century, "Vauxhall" was the name for all railway stations there, after a senior public official spent time in England and lived near the London Railway station with it's name, Vauxhall, prominently displayed.
