I have rented a car with Budget at the airport. There are two types of insurances that are relevant I believe, and here is my understanding of them: Collision Damage Waiver (CDW), also called Loss Damage Waiver (LDW): This covers the actual car I rent for damage or theft. If I decline it, I'm responsible, or at least responsible for a large ...
1. Re: Car rental insurance question. Your Geico insurance is not valid in Mexico and credit card insurance does not cover liability - everybody must have minimum liability insurance.

I think we paid $45-50 per day. $35 a day for insurance does sound like a lot but add the actual car rental price (probably $15 or so) and it's quite reasonable. Even if my credit card or at home insurance company said they covered me in Mexico I would still buy the insurance at the car rental place. It's worth the extra few dollars.
