I dont really like the electronic stuff either. A friend of mine with an older powerstroke had that sensor go out on him. Caused quite a bit of trouble for him.

Haha these stories on the news where people don't know what to do when the car is putting the gas at WOT drive me crazy. I wonder how NONE of these people thought "Hey maybe if I turn the key off the engine won't be running anymore". Or maybe put the car in neutral? Apply brakes? Any of the above actions can prevent a catastrophe. LOL
