I don't think you will be happy pulling that size trailer with the big gas engine. I had a 2015 with the big gasser. It had to work pretty hard to pull our 26' TT in hilly country. The engine does ok, but you will not get there in a hurry, you will endure a lot of engine noise as it downshifts a lot on even slight hills, and fuel mileage is terrible. If you still want the gasser, I would say a price in the lower 40's for that truck is pretty fair.
I traded mine for a very low mileage 2016 Powerstroke. Got it for under 40, out the door.
Look for low mileage used. You can save a ton of money up front.
I have towed that TT plus several others with my 2003 F250 Ford with the V10 eng for over 70K miles with no problems towing. 7 to 9 towing
and just got back from Yuma with my P/Up bed loaded and got 15 on the Freeway nearly 700 miles. Only reason I am thinking of buying a new P/Up is my 2003 has 104K miles and I don't care to leave the money to the "kids"
