Is there a cheaper alternative to car rental insurance in Mexico?

It’ll depend which country you can get credit cards in, obviously, but many credit cards include travel insurance, sometimes including car rental insurance. Often it’s the higher quality or ‘Gold’ cards (e.g. Visa Gold in some countries).

One example I can find online is Citi’s ThankYou Credit Card:

  • Excludes “Off-road, antique or limited edition vehicles are excluded, as are – trucks, recreational vehicles, campers, pick-up
    trucks and mini-buses.”
  • Must charge entire rental to the credit card
  • Must reject CDW from the rental agency
  • Per rental coverage maximum of 31 consecutive days
  • Maximum reimbursement of US$50,000

and some other rules and limitations, as per usual with credit cards. See page linked to, and the Citi website it links to for more information. But the $50k excess would seem to cover your requirements.
