What is the best way to hire a car in Baja, Mexico?

Charles Jamieson asked:
I am travelling to Mexico in June and would like to hire a car in Tijuana and travel down the Baja peninsula, dropping the car off in Cabo San Lucas (or thereabouts) before catching the ferry across to mainland Mexico.The only quotes I can find online include a drop-off fee (for returning the car to a different depot to the one at which I picked it up) of about $600–basically doubling the cost of car hire. Is there any way around this?
