Default Timing Chain

Considering a purchase next week of a 2015 GX 460 with 141,769 miles.

Is my understanding correct that this GX 460 would possess a timing chain and that there is no need to factor in timing chain replacement cost because the timing chain should last over 300,000 miles?

Thanks.

1UR-FSE has a timing chain, on a well maintained engine they rarely give any problems. Check out this article:

Getting it inspected by an auto repair shop before potential purchase.
