Not just the pickup engines. The 3.5, 3.1 and 3.8 V6s does this at 70K-8oK - usually about $700 to have a shop fix.

The "older" versions of the 3.6 have massive problems with the timing chains and tensioners. Apparently you should change the oil in them at 3k miles instead of the recommended 8K miles. Most of those engines when opened up are horribly dirty and the mechanics claim neglect - even when the recommended oil change interval has been followed. The dirty oil prevents the hydraulic chain tensioners from function properly.
