A 550 did cross my mind. I found one in AZ for sale.

Totally agree with your last statement!
The 6.0 PSD is one to be careful with. I believe they had ironed out the wrinkles by 2006 model year. My 2003 had a few problems out of warranty, and were a pain to fix (HPOP, injector harness), and pretty pricey. But I do miss it. The HPOP fix nearly killed me. I was standing on a flimsy 18" stepping stool to reach the back of the engine where the pump is, and it gave way. Dragged my whole gut and chest along the radiator and front of the engine. A few days later, I had blood clots floating to my lungs. The doc said it had nothing to do with the bruising, but I think that's too much of a coincidence.
Back on point. You can find a list of what to expect to break on the 6.0 for the various production years on several diesel forums. I'd check those out before pulling the trigger. Looks like a real good deal, though.
