I saw a decent drop this winter myself and am down to about 23-24mpg now versus 28-29mpg. Been brutally cold which has been hard on it.

I wouldn't be too concerned about the timing chain. For one, you will know when it starts to go (unless you ignore your car's "sounds") plus it's not something that is guaranteed to happen and it never did in my CTS. (same letter, same drill, hit 90k with no issues at all....new owner has 186k on her now) Just keep an eye/ear out and get it done once the warranty is completely out if you want to play it safe. I've always said, it you cannot afford to repair the said car, you should not have purchased it. (not you specifically, just saying in relation to this)
