Yeah GEICO is the bomb. When I had the VW they were far less than the competition. You should see how low they go for a 41 year old male with no tickets or accidents driving a minivan. Incredible.

Well, I'm still waiting for that 30 yr old premium *drop*.

No tickets, no accidents, '81 + '76 MB, '87 Audi, $140/mo.

I want it to be $50/mo like it is for my 80 yr old grandpa. Oh wait, per car it is! But still, I'm paying more at 31 than I did at 29. Hmmm??

Thanks Mistress for the liberty mutual tip. I can get it there for $6993 for 12 months. A little less than I have now, but they will go a whole year.

Listen, ask about good student discounts (if the kids have good grades) I got a 10% discount because i work at a hospital. ask about that, AAA. You have to ask for these extra discounts they don't just give em out.

Yep, I'll sit down with an agent first. Hopefully it's a female so I can wow her with my dashingly good looks and talents of the tongue.

I'm 24 for a few more months, have the R350 (full), the 87 300D (liability) and the 82 300CD (liability) insured with Nationwide (as well as my house) and my payments up to this most recent one were $1610 every 6 months. My bill I got last week dropped to $1092 for some reason and I haven't figured out why, although I'm not complaining! My only ticket was in December 2004, so I'm assuming maybe it was the points from that went away? I could have sworn they said those stick for 3 years.

Also, if you get your house insurance with them you get another discount. I don't know how much they give for the Clark Gable good looks but my agent is italian and our granmothers came from the same village in Italy so that counted for another 2% off.

I have an 18 year old who has hit everything in sight and a 16 year old who is just getting his license, and they cost me about $6500/yr combined. The next one will be 15 in 3 months...can't wait!

I had an insurance carrier that wanted to charge more for lawyers.

The company said that as a group, we lawyers are too aggressive, too wound up, too confrontational and like to drive fast red cars.

Now, anyone who knows me knows that I am none of the above.

Go figure!

I got three young drivers and one just around the corner.

And in California girls don't even get a break on their insurance rates, so I am hosed.

I feel your pain man!

Well, if she said anything about you being Cuban you could sue her...hahahahahhahaha. We all know that your a very level headed gentleman (in every sense of the word) you are cool, calm and collected in every situation....well except for when guys look at your daughters then that all falls apart.

Hey what do insurance companies do if your kids are hermaphrodites- do you get hosed twice?

I wonder if that was punitive, because of them being sued a lot?

I'm sure it wasn't that. It's jes bidness . . .
