I like Geico.
I'm 20, insuring a 1986 Toyota MR2.
6 month liability premium = $440
I started with them when I was 18, paying ~$120/month. Every 6 months my premium has gone down more and more. I'm sitting at $75/month now. I imagine when I'm 25 it will go down to almost nothing.
Never had a wreck or a ticket (crosses fingers)...that helps a lot lol.
progresive. had good experiences with them, and a huge discount for paying in a lump sum.
I was really happy with what Travelers was able to do for my new house.Quote:

Yeah that's pretty good.Quote:

It was about $50 less to have a $500 deducdtable and about $100 less for a $1000 deductable. Most everyone else I tried wanted to stick me with either a 1% or $1000 deductable and cost more per year than the $250 deductable from FB-ins.
How's the insurance living in the country? ;)
That quote above is for the country home. When I lived in Dallas, it was around a grand for similar coverage, but I also had a pool there and that may have accounted for as much of the difference as the location.Quote:

$125/month for full coverage on a Lotus AND a Miata sounds like a good deal, regardless of age.
Good point, the Miata will be gone soon though. Hope the insurance doesn't go up.Quote:

Wow... I'm about 900 ever 6 months on the Miata, F150, Jetta, and the Travel Trailer - all with full coverage.
Just turned 25 in May; my S2k went from $1260/6 to $780/6. That's with 1 ticket on my record and 1 wreck (not at fault, but the other driver didn't stop ::Censor:: ).Quote:

I highly recommend John. Besides, you have no obligation to buy from him.
BAH...
Geico sucks. My wife called to see how much they could "save" us. They gave a quote $180 higher every 6 months and tried to tell my wife how bad Farm Bureau sucked. Nasty sales tactics when we've had nothing but good things to say about our agent and the way we've been treated.
