Default Re: Braided steel fuel hose?

While I have not used this brand before, I'm checking on it this week. I saw this in Car Craft under new speed parts. www.techafx.com or 877-355-0137.
It's a PTFE hose that has a black nylon outer over a stainless steel braid with a PTFE core (I believe that is teflon?). Car Craft said it would last "for the life of your ride". Also said it would cure the gas smell in the garage.
I know from experience that if my car has been sitting around for 1 year plus, I can count on replacing most of the braided / rubber core lines. One time it looked like the fire sprinklers in a building went off!
