Sierra bears??

Urinate on all windows and drop a deuce at all four sides of the car and you will be golden. |

Headded, I asked about rental insurance and bear break-ins. You responded with a serious fucking attitude problem and a goddamned chip on your shoulder about me calling ursa (blank) a 'bastard' with very little additional helpful info. Get over it and put your energy elsewhere. I know it may seem like I'm a total fucking newb from my mp ticklist, or whatever online metric you use to judge worthiness, but I've been at this crap for 12 years now. I've just heard several stories about car break-ins in the sierras (hey it happens). So fucking chill, bruh. |

I can't believe people aren't shitting the bed over the rubber bullet comment. |

My buddy suggested a sympathy card for this sad looking feller? |

If you already have auto insurance, check your policy. Usually it covers you for rental cars, so you don't need to buy the insurance. |

Now that everybody's panties are sufficiently wadded up, here is a bit of useful information: |

Sidestepping all the flammage, the touristy areas of Yosemite and Tahoe are the worst. For sure, if there's a bear locker, use it. They didn't spend all that money to install them because there wasn't a bear problem. |

There's this "loss of use" thing where although *your* insurance may cover repairs to a rental car, the whole time it's being repaired (and so "out of use" to the rental company), you may be paying the rental rate. You should ask about that. I rented a car for a road trip and paid the extra to insure *their* vehicle. My insurance covered third party, but the insurance I got from them meant if their car was damaged for any reason, I could walk away without paying anything. In fact, if it was damaged beyond a roadworthy point, they would just swap it for a new one for the remainder of my rental period. It's expensive, but worry free.Like Mathias said, your personal auto policy will not cover "loss of use" on a rental car, which can add up quickly. Keep that in mind when/if you decline the additional rental car insurance. |
