One-day auto insurance policies for the Car Light Cyclist?

I'm looking to hear from folks living in the United States here. This is an issue that varies significantly among nations....

I'm currently car light. I own a car but rarely drive it. I am considering selling my car this spring. I anticipate there will be a handful of times each year when doing a task will require a car because of where I live. I'm not opposed to renting a car for a day a few times a year. I would prefer, however, to avoid paying the high insurance rates from the rental company. I obviously will cancel my auto insurance when I sell my car, so tacking on rental coverage won't be an option. Has anyone here had success getting a one-day policy from a regular insurance agent (again, when you don't have a regular auto policy)? If so, did you save money over the rental company price? Or am I unicorn hunting here, and is my only option to purchase insurance from the rental company?
