here in the usa "sometimes" our auto policies cover the auto rental .........a usa rental that is.
usually our major credit cards act as a supplement (for usa rentals)

all bets are off re: international rentals
check with your credit card company
and
if buying trip insurance, try to get a plan that has a car rental policy included
(check out insuremytrip.com)

we always rent with tropic while in aruba
tropic requires NO additional coverage
they provide the coverage
our credit card acts as a supplement (Master Platinum)
and we always have trip coverage thru Access America insuremytrip.com

good luck
great question
