Unless things have DRASTICALLY changed since I was a travel agent, it will be very hard to find a long distance drop like that for free.
National was the only one, probably still is...
Many car rental companies have zones that they will allow you to travel within without charge. DFW to MIA would cover at least 5 zones...
The easiest way to find out is to call each.
Here are the numbers:
AVIS 800-331-2212
BUDGET 800-527-0707
HERTZ 800-654-3131
NATIONAL 800-328-4300
ADVANTAGE 800-777-5500
ALAMO 800-327-9633
ENTERPRISE 800-325-8007

Oops, sorry I did not realise you are from Sweden. These numbers will not help you much.
Just log into Travelocity.com or any other big travel site and check or if you will give me your flight information I can check directly in the Global distribution system (Sabre).

You don't mention where or when you will be returning it in FL, so I guessed Oct 20 in MIA.
National is not charging a drop fee. See if you can call 800-468-3334, if not, go to this website and see what rates come up:
http://www.nationalcar.com/index.do?...ter=1&header=1
Or simply try Travelocity.
I think it is too soon to get a great deal, though.

Well, now you are getting too complicated... one of the reasons I am no longer a travel agent 
I think you have a good start on your research. You may be right... If you are going to be spending much time in Florida, you might as well pick up another car (possibly even another rental company) and get any cheaper deals offered.
