And that 6.2L V8 has been an absolutely solid engine, alongside it's 6.7L diesel V8, both of which have now been in the Super Duty line up since 2011 and counting. That by itself, should tell you how well proven these powerplants have been. You may not have had payments with the previous truck, but I'm sure the repairs were quite taxing.
Yes,Yes, Yes,Yes,Yes and Yes. The 6.0 was expensive to fix but loved that truck when it was running good. Wheels and tires and I'll probably be done just small things.

I went from a 2007 F-250 6.0L CCSB 4x4 of the very same colour as yours with tan interior to my current 2016 F-250 6.7L CCSB 4x4 truck. My wife and I both loved that truck when I had it. She was literally in tears when I sold it to get into my current truck. Funny thing is I never had any of those issues even though I had stockpiled a bunch of parts right down to head gaskets for the day it would need it. That day never arrived for me, so I ended up having to sell off all those parts when I unloaded that truck. To this day, my wife still misses the old 6.0L clatter even though she loves driving my current truck.

I can't believe it did that much damage! I hit one at 70 with my '78 Bronco, mildly lifted, (kinda like that red '78 in the background), slightly tweaked the front fender and bumper but that was it, deer went under. Nice new truck though, you'll love the 6.7.
