When I got out of college I leased a Ford pickup through the Darling's dealership in Bangor. He had a racket going on the exchange rate where he'd bring down vehicles from Canada that were coming in off two-year leases, and lease them back out.

It was a weeklong fight before one of them took my suggestion to call the auction yard and have them verify that the odometer was stated in kilometers.
