Default Alaska idea?

Hey Guys;
I'm thinking of doing some camping/fishing in the great northlands
this summer, but of course I like to move around as I visit places.

Back in college in Flagstaff, there was always a glut of rental cars
that ended up in Flag as tourists would drive there from LA, leave
their car, and fly home. As a result, you could usually negotiate a
great rate on a one-way rental to bring a car back to certain
destinations....LA for example, as it saved the company to price of
sending a car carrier to retrieve cars, and generated revenue. (In
truth, I used to even get paid to drive cars back to Phoenix and LA)

I was wondering if the same thing existed in Alaska...specifically if
people tended to rent RVs or vans in the lower 48, drive them to
Anchorage and fly home, leaving a glut of vehicles that needed to be
shuttled back south. If so, I was hoping to do a one-way rental and
bring one south for a good rate...a much more preferred travel option
than either having to pay a premium for a one-way rental, or having to
do a loop trip in my limitied available time.

Anyone know anything about this?
