Oh, thousands of people have used it.
Not one of them got any benefit from it.
It's pure snake oil

This thing costs around 90 bucks. Don't waste your money. I know someone personally who used it. Absolutely no benefit. As Tree_Hugger says, pure snake oil.

thanks Bro
They do work, but the only people that notice any benefit are the ones that buy gas twice or once per year, and store it.
Absolutely no benefit if you get your gas at a station that receive fresh gas every week.

Back in the 70s an Engineer came out with the ultimate fuel
saving device.. 2- 3/8" bolts 2" long with nuts..
Drill holes under the accelerator pedal in the floor board...
Install bolts from the outside & attach nuts from the interior..
This will keep you from 'Jamming your foot' on the
accelerator

Haha! You know, if it didn't do such damage to the truck (drilling holes?! ) that would be the PERFECT gag to do to someone.

The General did the same thing with the adjustable foot pedals.
If you adjust them to their max lowered position, you can not depress the accelerator to achieve 100% foot to the floor.
Thus no max acceleration therefore increased mileage.
What a novel solution by the General! They new that gas was going to top $2 bucks a gallon and they installed a method to lower consumption! And to think if they marketed it that way they could charge more for an AV!!!!!!!
