Over-the-Road Trucking Companies See Dramatic Fuel Savings

RADCLIFFE, Iowa--Sept. 2, 2004--Mirenco, Inc., (OTCBB:MREO) Client Ramthun Trucking, Manson, Iowa, not only increased miles per gallon by over 14% or 3/4 a mile per gallon but also anticipates saving approximately 2,300 gallons of fuel in one year by installing DriverMax(R).

"I drive approximately 100,000 miles a year so if fuel stays around $1.80 per gallon, that could mean over $4,000 in annual savings for me," said Dennis Ramthun, owner/operator and driving for Ramthun Trucking.

The DriverMax(R) technology is a patented programmable fuel management system that matches fuel flow with fuel demand to allow an engine to operate as efficiently as possible.

Having heard about Ramthun's results, Steve Meimann of Meimann Farms, Zearing, Iowa, decided this was an opportunity he couldn't pass up. "Since putting DriverMax(R) on, I am getting 7.34 miles per gallon compared to about 6.8 miles per gallon before. I think it's great! If it continues like this, it will pay for itself in no time."

DriverMax(R) was co-developed with the Department of Energy by the same team that makes missile guidance systems. This technology was also acknowledged by the Department of Energy as one of the "100 Best Technologies In The 20th Century."
