My Dad has a "Canadian" Ford Explorer and the only noticable difference is
that the speedometer is kilometers per hour, with the mph as the smaller
numbers inside. I've driven it a few times and I actually don't like
that,
so I guess it would be personal preference. If that's a non-issue, then I
think you're probably all set. He's never said it's needed special parts
for it or anything when bringing it to the garage. Coincidentally, he
bought his down in Mass. as well - heh.
