APPS going bad???

well, it's not horrible yet but it's done it twice this week. once yesterday and once today. i'll be goin along, either accelerating (the 1st time) or goin at a steady 35 mph (2nd time) and the truck will just go limp! it's like you took your foot off the pedal really suddenly, then it'll kick back in. no code, yet, but we'll see. i heard of these being symptoms of the apps going bad, but also the dreaded VP44.

what do ya'll think?
