Im not sure to believe the technician that it is not an electronic problem. Its killing my life...

Sounds electrical to me. And possibly a combination of things.
New battery and alternator - check.
Drives fine until 20 minutes after, albeit low power, which seems to indicate no juice for gas cars. Sounds like you have a charging problem.
However, someone mentioned something like diesels don't use electricity once started - is this true?
Again, don't know diesels.
