I asked at GRR about this, and the girl working the desk told me that they have "sister locations" at DTW and LAN, and a couple others..... this was a couple years ago so it may not be the case anymore....
methinks that was your corporate rate at work. A normal one way is like 70ish one way one day. I had about $40 at my old corporate contact with avis for these locations.

but like the comment, I’ve also seen premium routinely price lower on these one ways.
