Most likely, while doing the work to replace the PVC hose you bungled something up in the throttle or cruise cable retainers or brackets causing one of them to jam open during normal driving. Go ahead, blame it on the car this time. We know the throttle cable works and know who really was at fault... (hint: wasn't Ford)

Also, might check into payoff protection on your next car loan. Covers you for full payoff should the car become totalled in an accident. Something available now in many states is full new car purchase price reimbursement insurance for up to 3 years no matter what the value of the car becomes within those 3 years.
