Yes to both questions. Seems reasonable, depending on condition and options.
Upside to pre-2017, I believe, 6.2s, is they have a very similar trans to the Powerstroke. Same model, 6r140, but some differences. Bottom line, the trans is basically overkill for the 6.2 and a bulletproof combo that works very well. Not that the newer trans behind the gassers is weak, but it is lower rates than the 6r140.
I had a 2012, or 13, I forget, and a 2015 F250. Both 6.2 3.73 trucks. Both were the best gasser combo I've had to date, compared to 20+ new company trucks over the last 20+ years.
Only "better" combos, IMO are the new 7.3/10speed ford or 6.4/8speed Ram. But I haven't had any time with these.
