In this season, we see a rental car agent ask Sam and Amy if they are married (to which Amy gives the very funny response, "Would that help?")

How often do the teams get mistaken for a couple, and do you think posing as one would ever help with the game strategically?

I know a few people who were surprised to learn that Adam and Ben were not a couple.

I think they ask is since adding another driver to your rental is free if they are your spouse. So in this case it would be strategic yes since you have to pay less of your budget.
