Question TMB/TIMBO APPS sensor, have you tried them, and what are the results?

First of all,....there is NO SPAM intended here,.....I'm just trying to figure out the quality of their sensors BEFORE buying (possibly) a DRAMA!

http://www.dodgecumminsapps.com/about.html

Has anyone of you tried this
AcceleratorPetalPositionSensor or "APPS" sensor from TMB/Timbo?

I mean,...the TMB APPS sensor $160.00 deal looks almost too good to be true, especially after I called my local dealer today which quoted $750.00 (tax included) for the same sensor, WITHOUT installation!

WITH installation the dealer quoted me today $1250.00!!! HOLY CRAP!

If you HAVE tried TMB APPS sensors,...whats your experience in the long run;
-just a good as OEM?
or
-better then OEM?

How many miles have you driven after installation of a new TMB APPS?
Or how many miles were inbetween the prior TMB APPS and another NEW one?
-25K?
-50K?
-75K?
-100K?
Why the milage question?
Because my OEM sensor lasted 115K!
Quality and Durability IS IMPORTENT!

-Does it stay stable or does it need to get recalibrated all the time?

Please reply,....I rather try to figure out the quality of the TMB APPS sensors this way, then ending up on the side of the road, which could put my job at stake!

Thanks in advance!

I purchased a timbo apps july 09 ( 10,000 miles ago). Was an easy install, no problems with it.

I had my APPS go out around 130k on my old 01, and replaced it with a Timbo's apps, really easy install, and never had another problem with it once I got it in, ran it about 15k before I sold the truck, never had another issue with it.
