At the car rental place this morning, the following exchange was held:
"So, we have a Yaris for you, or you can upgrade to a Dodge Dakota"
"I have no idea what either of those are"
"The Yaris is this car here, and the Dakota is that silver Pick-up truck"
"Umm... I'm driving to Toronto with a dog and luggage, I'll take the car"
"I bet your boyfriend would love riding in the Dakota"
"I bet you don't know my boyfriend"
As a subsequent note... I don't know whether the pick up with luggage in the back would have been better than this clown car I have...

I took that upgrade once. When I was camping 1 hour outside of Ottawa.
But for 4 hours of highway driving, plus city driving? I think not.
I remember working at a gas station and a Suburban would come in 3 times a week to fill up at over $100 a tank.. when gas was cheap! She spent more on gas in a week than I made in a week pumping it for her.

and plus too the parking spaces are tiny..
now if someone had a legitimate use of an SUV in Northern ontario... although i'd suggest they get a truck...
