It's working for me. I went from 16.8 mpg around town to 21.5 and 22 on the hwy to 25.8. That was after 3 tanks. My business partner had good results also. Research on XP labs showed last year sales of over 3 billion so somebody is using it.

Just returned from a trip to Washington DC driving a 2005 Chrysler Town & Country. My wife had purchased a bottle of XP3 for the trip. Total mileage driven was 3,100 miles. Over the past 2 years the vehicle has averaged 20.5 miles per gallon (car computer). The first tank saw the average mileage rise to 25.3 average miles per gallon. The trip out to Washington DC was 24.8. the return trip (travelling westbound with some wind) averaged 24. 5 miles per gallon. We were very happy with the results. Factoring in the cost of the product, we saved an estimated net $66 on the trip.
I did not notice any change in power or roughness in how the car ran, but these are subjective issues.
I will now try it on a Infiniti 2006 M35X in city & highway driving. My question is, what are the long term effects of using this type of additive?

Hello, we just bought a few bottles to try out and they seem to work. I'm also a skeptic by nature, which is why I ended up in this forum. It's also a reason why I have to test it out myself.
Is it possible to get other name brands spelled out here so I can test and compare with another car? Someone says Walmart sells one for under $3.
I would love to save gas and money at the same time, so if a cheaper product is out there that can do the same thing, I am all for it.

I've been using XP3 in TWO engines as of to date. I have to admit that I was very VERY positive about the product in the beginning, and the results were, as you say, "favorable", on my SUV, but not my Honda Accord. I saw NO DIFFERENCE in the HONDA. The company kept telling me to use the product, and your MPG will "BREAK LOOSE". 9 months later... Nothing so far. Although, I do hear a cleaning running engine, and I do believe it has seriously cleaned my fuel system, and lowered my carbon emmissions. I have a generator that I ran during my last hurricane, and WOW the Emmissions were seriously reduced. So... we know we are getting a cleaner burn.
Let me talk about my SUV. In all honesty the SUV seemed to be doing great in the winter months in comparison with summer months, and I have come to realize the difference... the A/C is not used, and the car doesn't run with the A/C on. So... by all means, I get a Higher MPG.
Now... I have spoken to the company many times about this, and all of the reps say the same thing. "We have people getting a 20% Increase in their mileage"
Here's the Bottom Line with the product, and my personal testing. I have sold about 30 bottles. I have had ONE REORDER (That was my sister, and she stopped because she said she THOUGHT she was seeing a difference, but didn't see one).
I am using the product because it burns my fuel much cleaner, and I like the fact that I KNOW it's doing good in my engines!
Do I save money? Well... I think in the long run it will save me some money on Maintenance, few oil changes, takes water out of the gas, better fuel burn, cleans injectors.
Do I get higher MPG as in their testimonial claims? NOPE.
I will keep using the product, I did buy into their larger package, and really used it. I have enough product to last me atleast another year or maybe even two.
My recommendation is a NO on the product unless you can afford to keep using you. The product IS beneficial to your engine, but does NOT do anything to increase your MPG.

Interesting,
As to some of your results, here is the truth, the winter driving can no way be compared to the summer with A/C use. The fact is, in cold weather starts which adjust for richer fuel mix, this will far exceed any A/C reduction in economy. The A/C compresors of today draw very little reduction in economy verses driving with windows open which creates drag, so it is a wash in all the testing I have done and researched over the years.
Here is the real test for you, stop using it for a few tanks and see if you have more consumption. Given most do not use a scanguage computer to exactly track MPG results, nor is anyone driving exactly the same day to day, even if you drive same route at same speed, it is near impossible to track results accurately, so I would bet you won't see any change in economy when you stop using product for a few weeks. The point is, IF you have a dirty fuel system or excess carbon build up on valves, heads and piston tops, once removed, the only increases you will see is from this removal of carbon, not from the fuel treatment itself, so save some money and stop using it for several months to see the truth.
Success to all,

I have read the above posts and not surprised there are skeptics and believers in the product.
I recently purchased my first bottle of Xp3 from a friend who is distributing it. Since using it I've seen about a 25% increase in mpg. I recently bought a 1991 Oldsmobile Intrigue and kept gas receipts and was getting less than 300 miles per 15 gallons. After using Xp3 I compared receipts and have been getting almost 400 gallons per 15 gallons. I went from approximately 20 mpg to 28/29 mpg.
This is actual data from experience. I do not sell the product so I have nothing to gain from sharing my experience.
I'm not a scientist and have not done the tests as shown in the video, though it makes sense to me that Xp3 disperses water in your fuel, thus burning cleaner and more efficiently.
My question to the skeptics is... Have you tried it? Once you have, then you can speak from experience...
