You can get the rental car down to about $10 bucks and then add the insurance.

Reserve what you have, and then when you arrive, bounce around from counter to counter and they will negotiate big time. They will beat each other's prices. It is almost comical. When they see what you are doing they will actually come up to you and grab your arm to come with them.

Make sure the insurance is full coverage.
