Gearing?
I have an 06 xlt 5.4 4x4 scab and I am in CA visiting my dad and drove his 07 xlt 5.4 screw 2x4 and his feels like a rocket off the line mine feels like a slug compared! Is it a gearing issue? I have know idea what mine is my dad says he has posi ok his.

More than likely gearing. I would imagine the weight would be very close between the two given the weight difference between a Scab and Screw & 2wd vs. 4wd.
What's the axle code on the door jamb on his truck?

the Screw weighs about 5,700 lbs
the Scab weighs about 5,700 to 5,800
You would think the Screw would weigh more, but it's due to the 4x4 component weights...roughly 300 lbs for the front diff and t-case
what is the axle code on each truck?
btw, it also has alot to do with how each truck is driven.

you both are likely to have 3.55 is they're both XLT's

the transmission has an adaptive capability.
it basically learns your driving style, and adjusts shift points and shift hardness accordingly.

so if you drive it soft and slow, it shifts nice and smooth
if you drive it hard, it shifts harder, and there is more "performance" felt
