I'm not aware of a $20,000 (or any) deductible on the supplemental liability insurance.
That's what I would have thought but I was looking at this
If you elect to purchase SLI, coverage will be provided to you and any authorized driver under an excess coverage automobile policy issued to Avis. SLI provides protection for third party automobile claims for the difference between the minimum financial responsibility limits provided under paragraph 21 above and a maximum combined single limit of liability of $1,000,000 or $2,000,000 depending on the jurisdiction of rental and vehicle type for bodily injury, death or property damage for each accident.

That language seems to in effect impose a deductible but I wondered if Avis has ever actually implemented the SLI that way.
