first of all, try calling Avis and ask if they have any one way specials from pittsburg to DC. On occasion they do. Most recently they were advertising from AZ to California or from LAS to California or PHX. they were waving drop fee and issuing unl miles at one point. Never hurts to ask.
Heres a current deal for manhattan to Newark, NJ.

second, Consider taking the unlimited mileage (crappy rate) one way and pick up and drop off that car on the same day. Then pick up a booked rate at killer prices for the remainder of your trip/vacation/whatever.
