Many years ago I had a reservation for a full size car, but when I got to the rental agency they were totally out of cars because there was a large convention in town and they were late returning their cars.

The only vehicle they had left on the lot was a 9 passenger Ford van, so it was take this or go back to the airport and take my luck with other rental agencies. The rental agency offered me the van at the same rate that I had reserved the car for and since I was not going to put that many miles on the vehicle, I decided to take the van.
