Default Knock Sensor?

My 06 5.4 liter has developed a bad miss and really low mpg. I'm getting around 9.5. Mpg around town and maybe 11 on the road (with 35 inch tires). The check engine light came on and I stopped by Goodyear and they checked it. The code came back as a knock sensor. I bought the truck a year ago and it now has 75k miles on it. I've never tuned it up and I'm not sure when it was last tuned. I called the dealer and they quoted $700 bucks to replace the knock sensor. Realistically what should I expect to pay and is the knock sensor the real problem or could it be something else?
