But I Thought I Ordered a Limo…

I remember a day when you could order a limo and actually get a limousine - a stretch limousine.

Those days are 'long gone,' no pun intended.  Today when you order a limo, you are likely to get a regular sedan or SUV.  In fact, you will have to specify a stretch limo if that is what you want.

Most limo companies today don't even have a stretch limousine in their fleet.  Instead, they have to arrange for one from one of their partner companies/ brokers.  Often they will do their best to persuade you to go with a regular length sedan or SUV (so that they won't have to go through a partner).

If I wanted a sedan, I would have just jumped into a taxi.

So be careful when you order your limo and make sure you get what you want.  If you want a stretch, ask for it and make sure they give you confirmation.
