Timing Chain Replacement?

I was really pleased to see the tritons had chains, not belts. I wonder how this happened... somehow the engineers won over the bean counters! I can hardly understand it... lately it seems everything about most vehicles is just manufacture them absolutely as cheaply as possible and let them fall apart at 50,000 miles - so you have to repair or buy another one. Maybe Ford really values the rep. of their flagship F-series...
