Hi:

My husband drives a big rig and sometimes I ride with him - tho I am not very experience with the trucking business as I have a job at home baby-sitting.

My husband was been asked to use this thing called QP USA on his truck because he was told it would save him money on fuel. Well, he has been using it but we can't see a difference and the guy who asked him put it on the rig wants $2000!

Has anyone else had any experience with this QP USA product? It's some sort of unit that you strap on to the engine that has crystals that are supposed to save you fuel using quantim physics.

I just saw a whole show on 20/20 with John Stossel last week about how these types of fuel saving devices are bogus.

Any and all responses would be greatly appreciated.

Here is what their site said before it was down for whatever reason (www dot qpusa dot com):

"QP USA, Inc. provides innovative emission reduction technologies through the advanced science of quantum physics.

The result— a significant reduction in fuel consumption and maintenance costs for diesel engines and related industries. Lower your trucking fuel costs.

How does the (QPR) Quantum Power Revolution work?

The following explanation is in layman’s :

When engines operate at levels less than the Optimum levels that they are capable of, they develop build up. On a Molecular level your engine builds matter known as Molecular matter. When Molecular Buildup takes place, the Opacity levels that your engine produces can become extremely high. The higher the Opacity levels that your engine is producing ultimately means more overall cost for you. How? Well, if your fuel is not completely burned up in the chamber it’s being spent right up the stack. Thus, higher levels of Opacity. Your fuel is going up literally in more ways than one!

Functioning on the principles of Quantum Physics, Quantum Tunneling, Quantum Mechanics, Molecular Structure, and managing Electrons. The Quantum Power Revolution balances the electrical energy field of the entire truck.

This is achieved by installing the QPR in 2 locations of your engine. Because the QPR operates when Heat Activated we strongly recommend installation of the Dual Unit QPR at two separate points of the engine to achieve maximum results. These are the Radiator Hose and the Exhaust Manifold. Once Heat Activated, the QPR’s emit Quantum Energy through Radio Frequency. The same way Radio Frequency is invisible yet we are still able to receive channels and music…the QPR is doing its job using the same method to interact with the Electrons, Protons and Neutrons of your engine. Through this process the Electrons, Protons and Neutrons in the Quantum Energy field become balanced. Your Trucks engine will actually begin to operate in a more harmonious state. Less friction inside of your Trucks engine means it operates more efficiently. Efficient Operation = $$$"

Thank you for any and all advice you can give me on the company. Their headquarters seem to be in Florida.
