Why, because I didn't buy my truck for the sole purpose of racing, and it works best for me(notice I said me and not you) and what I mainly use it for which is towing/hauling.
I am sure the 5.0L is the best engine for you and your needs as it should be since you picked it. Although, the ability to haul 1000 lbs is more of a testament to the trucks ability and not any particular engine.
I asked the question to see if it was going to be a true race of engines or "may the most mods win" kind of race between you two. If it was a true race of engines then I would have asked ya'll to post the video if ya'll meet. If it was just a "may the best mod win" kind of race then I wouldn't have bothered to ask for the video. I was not trying to contest you in your "who's e-peen is better" competition so get your panties out of a wad and chillax.
I only speak up when a thread about 5.0 trucks gets invaded by ecoboost owners touting how their motor is better than ours. I'll go one step further and say "I'll race and beat any ecoboost truck around at the track after getting better gas mileage going there"!

Many of us enjoy reading the testaments of the 5.0 until crap like this starts showing up. Pretty much goes downhill from there.

LOL, I like it!! 
Truth be known there is only a handful of ecoboost trucks that can beat me N/A. Here is a N/A time slip peddling the launch on my street tires. I know I can run a 10th or two quicker on my Nittos!

I didn't buy my truck to race otherwise I would have bought a Mustang. I too would enjoy reading about the topic of the thread as opposed to a pissing match on whose engine is better which somehow ALWAYS comes up. Let's talk in 5 years when we all have many miles under out belt. Only time will tell which engine is better.
