Call YOUR insurance agent. Ask if you have rental coverage, I do and I think most do.
If you don't, get it. It will be much cheaper to get it from your own company, anyway. When you have it, do not let them try crap like, "We'll demand the money right away even if you have insurance." Demand all you want, you'll be dealing with my insurance company. BTW, I had a buddy who worked for Enterprise, it was their biggest moneymaker and he earned a bonus based on how much he sold. |

Also check with your credit card company. They may cover you automatically.

I think most insurance cover you for rental cars if you have full coverage.
What they don't cover is "loss of use" clauses. this is the time between the accident and them getting the car back in rental use. I rented a car in Cal and in Vegas. Both companies had thes clauses. I ended up buying the insurance[:(] |

Only get the extra coverage if you're planning on having a wreck [;)]
Seriously, it is a waste of money if you already have full coverage on your own vehicle. But to be safe, check your own policy as states laws and policies vary. |

Check with your insurance agent, but you should be covered on your own policy. I'm a practicing insurance defense lawyer and most policies do cover rental cars. The "extra" insurance the rental car companies sell is a rip-off. If your own policy covers it, the company the rental agency uses won't pay off because you have other insurance. But, to be on the safe side, check with your agent just to be sure.
