Question 1976 360 engine

A friend of mine is looking at a 1976 F-250 ranger with a 360 in it. I have two questions I would like some advice on:

1) What are the pros and cons on a 360- 2v)

2) What is the difference between a Ranger model and stock XLT?

360 isn't a bad engine, its just not a torque monster. It will get better fuel economy than a 460. Ranger vs XLT - Ranger package is the middle of the road, XLT is the top of the line - more trim, fancier interior etc.
