I've done one-way rentals from AUS to IAH and still had my pick of vehicles. I think I selected a Jeep Patriot.

Just watch the receipt. I was charged a, "cleaning fee," as they said I had smoked in the vehicle. Took a bit of back/forth, and had to get in touch with the manager at IAH to remove the charge (note: I don't smoke. I have asthma and if I did smoke or have someone in the vehicle smoking, it would be a major problem. plus I wear contacts, and the smoke bothers my eyes. so no, I did not smoke in the vehicle).
