Here's the deal... Not all are bad. But many are! You can spend many thousands bulletproofing, then spend thousands more chasing faults on the parts you didn't swap. Some high-end RV owners (e.g. SportsMobiles) have gone through and replaced their motors, fuel systems, wiring and still had to be towed later on down the road.
I used to run a diesel repair shop. In 2012 I made most of my income repairing 6.0s. I wouldn't drive one further than my card AAA will cover me. I've had customers spend more in a month on their 6.0's, then I've spent the entire 10 years and 300,000 miles I've owned my V10!
When the 6.0 runs, its actually runs pretty well, and is fine rig to drive. But be prepared to pay for that enjoyment out of deep pockets and with a flexible schedule.
