I am in a dilemma, about rental insurance. Let me start from the beginning. My family and I are about to journey on up north at the end of month. Going back home to NYC for a week. After researching the trip fare. You see, we are going to take the train. When you have a 7 yr old with a weak stomach and 2 yr old twins, the train seem like the logical choice. However the price is not logical. I would cost us about 800.00 round trip for a family of 5 (2 Adult and 3 children).

So we decided to look into car rental. That was our first choice, but since I would be the sole driver my wife got a little worried about the long distance (500 mi approx.). Now since we realize the price of the train and to travel about 10-11 hrs with the children, I believe its not a good idea so we when back to the rental route. I research Hertz using my AAA membership discount, however Enterprise gave us a better price. So I now here is my dilemma should I go with the rental insurance? It looks like $20 or more a day for a week. I will give my car insurance agent a call tomorrow to see if my insurance covers rentals. If so I will go that route, even though I will have to pay a deductible if I have a fender-bender. I found a informative article on "the basic of rental car insurance". Well, I have a week before I have to make a decision.
