In specific cases, Hertz (and others, I suppose) will have special deals for very specific oneway rentals, like New York to Florida (or the other way round). That happens when they need to move vehicles from one area to another due to shifting demand. If you happen to go that way during that week or month, you are basically helping them out, so they lower the price.

I also remember a rental from Miami to Jacksonville, years ago, booked through a European intermediary. But the station in Jacksonville was very surprised when I showed up, the return took hours to process, and they charged a hefty drop fee (which the intermediary eventually refunded me). I was lucky that I had arrived super early at the airport, otherwise I would have missed my flight.
