Ford Motor Co.’s new diesel and gasoline engines for its revamped 2011 Super Duty pickups are cleaner, quieter and more economical than current products, executives said at a presentation at the National Truck Equipment Association’s annual meeting in St. Louis. The 6.7-liter Power Stroke diesel and 6.2-liter gasoline engine, both V-8s, will be the optional and standard engines, respectively, in F-series heavy pickups when they go into production later this year with revised front-end styling and more comfortable interiors.

It has come to our attention that there are companies claiming to sell & stock our products without our authorization.  Be advised that only the companies listed on our website as dealers/distributors are authorized.  Any other company is not authorized by Minute Man Mfg, Inc.


We have also seen a particular company use our product name to be found in search results.  The product information they display with our products is incorrect and points to a competitor’s product.  We feel it is unfortunate that some feel it is necessary to resort to these tactics. We are taking measures to deal with the situation.  The single most reliable source of information regarding our products is found here – on our website.  We of course welcome your calls if you have questions.

GM, Ford report sales gains as economy perks up

November 5th, 2009 by Quinn

General Motors Co. reported its first monthly sales increase in nearly two years on Tuesday and Ford Motor Co. also racked up gains in October, providing further evidence that the U.S. economy appears to be on the mend.

Overall vehicle sales were level with last October’s totals, ending a streak of year-over-year declines as the market continued its slow climb out of the steep downturn that began in 2008.
