The 6.2 is a great motor..relatively problem free. I saw one with over 300k on it somewhere on here.

take a look at the 2011 and 2012 on ebay.. many with 300k miles...

my 2012 has 138,000 miles .. not a sound.. fleet/lease... purchased in July 2015.

check in the system info . steering wheel.... hours...
mine has 4,100 hours running.. so a freeway truck.
and 600 idle hours.

Both SuperDuty motors have proven a good success. Even though we sell far more 6.2 gas motors, I see them in the shop far less than the 6.7 diesel motors. Generally I think it's one of Fords most reliable power plants currently available.
