Anyone use this additive in their stang. They say it can be used in just about anything. Surpose to bond to all metal surfaces to make them super slick. They say truckers swear by it.

Snake oil, if it did anything why wouldn't Ford throw some in at the factory--and say that it is required every other oil changeor whatever--to get better fuel economy (to make the EPA happy), horsepower (to make the marketing department happy), and reduced engine wear (to make the warranty/bean counters happy)???
They don't, because it doesn't do anything except put money in the pockets of the charlatans selling it. "Truckers" (my recently departed uncle was a long haul trucker for his whole life, so I can say this) like lots of lights, CB radios, and shiny plastic lug nut covers too...
