Default Crazy to purchase a used 2010-2012 w/out timing chains?

You saw the title - is it crazy to consider this?

Am I just ready to make a purchase after 6 months and losing sanity or is it actually fine so long as it's enthusiast owned? I originally set my parameters to not even consider an LR4 unless this had been done just to be on the safe side, but as I hit the 5 month mark of not quite being able to land a rig I'm starting to ask myself if I should consider a few exceptions for some well loved but not timing chain tensioners replaced rigs.

Besides the chains, are you familiar with all of the other issues these trucks have?

You mean like not running out of gas?

Joking joking. Oh yeah, I am well aware of the preventative maintenance and need to have a thick wallet or a desire for a hobby. Honestly that's part of why I have had none-timing-chain LR4s off limits but have seen a couple rigs that check a lot of other boxes so sorta just taking the temp on whether anyone actually has pulled the trigger on that setup.
