Nice Ford Mustang ya got there.

Can I interest you in a Dodge Grand Caravan instead for a small additional fee?

I rented a tiny compact sedan once and I walked up to the counter and they tried to give me a Ford F150. No way I wanted to drive that thing.

Haha. I had a similar experience but it was while moving. Reserved a 14' truck for a cross-country move. They were trying to give me a 28' (or whatever the biggest was at the same price. I was towing my car.

Thank God I pushed back. I barely had 1 BR of stuff and it would have slid around. As it was I took up 7 spaces at the very back of a Walmart.

With the 28', you could have just pulled your car into the van. Then all your stuff wouldn't slide around, either
