Ok,
Got the truck back yesterday late afternoon. Looks like the CAC assembly was replaced and the PCM/TCM were recalibrated.
The truck doesn't misfire in the morning anymore and my harsh 2-3 shift is gone so far the truck is running great again...glad to have it back.
As far as the issue I had after a long trip, I stay mostly local with this truck so it may be a while until I get a good highway run on it to see if the CAC actually fixed that.

Yeah me too,
I don't like the servicing dealer the company takes the truck too though. Im kind of **** when it comes to my stuff, even though the truck isn't mine, but the tech had grease all over the drivers seat, steering wheel, and driver side door panel.
I own/operate my own repair shop and I would never give a customer their vehicle back in that condition. Its a shame that no one takes pride in what they do anymore, well there is a very limited number of people that do.
I have bought trucks from this dealer as well and the service has always been that way...sloppy. After buying 4 brand new trucks from them, I learned my lesson when it was time to buy my current 06 SD I switched.
Anyway my little rant is over about sloppiness. Thanks for listening.

You should try the recal. I wasn't too concerned with the cold start misfire issue as I was with the trans shifting issue, and its nice now...not sure if you have the harsh 2/3 upshift though.
