Why would the agent care, unless it's a station manager or one responsible for revenue generation?

I think the trip totaled about 7000 miles in 2 weeks.
I paid around $160 for the 2 week car rental.
The lowest price I paid for gas was in Georgia for around 80 cents a gallon .
The rental had about 4100 miles on it when I started and ended with around 11200. Well worth the cost of the rental.
Wonder if the rental company made any money renting to me.
what year was this? $160 for 2weeks?????
My guess would be the mid 90's with gas at that price.
