I don't specifically know Oklahoma law, but I doubt it is any different in this area than in the jurisdictions in which I practice.  An employer can refuse to fhire someone for any reason not prohibited by statute (e.g. age, gender, religion, etc.)  Many employers require employees to have their own car.
