Sounds a little high. I paid the installer about 7k last year for my 4 ton 16 SEER system. (heat pump heater, no gas) It was a complete new system including new wire from the breaker.

2.5 ton should be plenty with your climate. I could probably get by with 3.5 in my 2400 sq ft house here in TX, where our summer is hotter and our winter colder than yours.
