I think that MAY be the answer. When we apply an "advanced tune", the "drive cycle" code is erased. Now, no one has actually said this, but my feeble little brain tells me that possibly this "kills" the "adaptive learning" strategy built in to our PCMs. After all, we would not want our trucks to start rejecting the new tune's "improvements" in favor of going back to Ford's factory settings. So, set the tune to stock, disconnect the battery for 30 minutes or so and then reconnect. I'd drive it in stock for a couple of days after that before reloading the tune.
