Car rental in Mexico, Insurance question

[MurfAtHome]

We plan to rent a car while in Mexico. My Allstate insurance doesn't cover me if I am more than 75 miles from the U.S. border. The car rental companies offer insurance but it is expensive and I dont know if it is a good idea. My agent suggested I find a company regestered to do business in Mexico and buy it from them.

thanks!!!:rolleyes:

Everything you say is true..............

 

I have noticed that some coverage has been included wiith Avis in our last 2 Mexico Rentals, so you may want to ask them "What coverage is included in the rental" ?

 

Also I called me Credit Card company and found out that I am also covered with them as long as I use the card to pay for the rental.

Get the insurance and be stress free. Most US insurance companies only offer coverage in the US and Canada. I rented from Avis 3 months ago in Merida for 5 days and have used Executive Rental on Cozumel.
