Dusty Rust-eze was a rusted compact van that, together with his brother, Rusty Rust-eze, lived in his mother's garage in Boston, Massachusetts, United States. He and his brother loved telling jokes and helping other rusted cars. Because of that, they developed medicated bumper ointment around 1991. They started small company called Rust-eze, operating from their mother's garage, with their invention as a main product. It eventually grown into a household name with factories all over the country. Despite of company's success, they kept living in their mother's garage. Rusty and Dusty's mother stated that she was proud of her sons' successes but hoped their would eventually move out.
Around 2006, he and his brother searched for somebody to represent their product, organizing an open casting. Eventually, their worker, Mack, recommended racing driver Lightning McQueen. They signed contract with him and started Piston Cup racing team. McQueen's successes on the racing field gave company publicity and a fanbase focused around the racer and Rust-eze products. Through the racing season they would organise fan meetings with McQueen during which they would tell a joke to the spectators while awaiting Lightning's speech. After McQueen disappearance after the race at the Motor Speedway of the South they were confused and stated to the media that they did not know were he was.

Rusty and Dusty supported Lightning McQueen throughout his career. In 2017, Rust-eze accomplished record sales thanks to racer's popularity. After rise of next-generation racers, brothers acknowledged that they were not capable of providing Lightning the training and resources on the level the next-generation racers had.
