Timing Belts

A Ford Service writer recently told my neighbor that many late model Ford's will need the timing belt replaced before 100k miles, a $600 hit.

Is this a fact? If so which models and engines?

That would be up from the 60K that they used to recommend. On Ford products, most of the timing belts are on 4 cylinder engines. Most of the others have timing chains.
