The Brennan Manufacturing Company of Syracuse, New York, also later known as Brennan Motor Company, was established in 1897 and initially built bicycles.
From 1902 Brennan built motor cars of their own design, which were mainly made to customer order. After the Brennan motor car ceased production in 1908, the company focused on engine manufacture for a variety of other motor vehicle manufacturers and for other applications.
In late 1908, Brennan offered an 18 hp two-cylinder 1-1/4-ton commercial car with chain drive, called the Model 7. Later, in 1913, Brennan offered a range of trucks, including 2-ton, 3-ton and 5-ton capacity models, but for one year only.
