Another vote for AAA. I've had them for years (ok since I got my learner's permit). Every year I cost compare and every year they're right in there. Plus I've never had any issues with claims or anything. Not that I've had a lot but a few fender benders etc. They were always super helpful and took care of everything. I also have them for my renters insurance so I get a break there too.

If you can get USAA, I think they're pretty great. Have to have the military connection, though.

Get fewer speeding tickets and don't let 25-year-olds drive your car.

That's all I've got. In the nearly 20 years I've been a driver I've never once been involved in my car insurance coverage decisions.

We have USAA but I have no idea if it is really any good. Doing comparisons would be shopping and that isn't going to happen.

That would be suggestions on good insurance companies- thanks

:p speeding tickets are all dropping off soon- none for a long time but still in 3 year time frame.

We are on the same policy- home and auto-and we sometimes drive each others cars. It's called "life".....though now that my car will not be in the shop all the time we may swap less often.

Besides that- his insurance is going down due to being a homeowner and turning 25.

Congrats on the new car!

Congrats on the new wheels!!!

I've been happy with Farmer's Insurance, and we've been with them a long time now. I get a discount for having the house insured with them.

USAA defended me like crazy on a case that would look to an outsider as as iffy. We won. The other driver hired more lawyers and what-not, but the case was eventually dropped.

I've had a decent situation going on with Allstate, though once I move I may switch insurances.

Good luck... wish I was a little more help...

Nephythys 11-30-2007 02:07 PM

Well- Allstate came through. Only $3 more than current-going to stay right where we are!

Woot!

Well I broke it.

oops

Last night on a aborted trip up north for a family dinner (a whole 'nother story) I popped in a CD-R- a music disc my dad had burned for me ages back. It played fine- but when I went to change the disc to a professional soundtrack CD it spit it out as a bad disc.

WTH?

So I tried several more- and all spit out as bad discs. So I called the service center at the dealership and they asked me to come in and they would check it- hopefully they could reset it.

No go- turns out the CD-R killed my CD player altogether and they have ordered a new stereo for me. Should be able to get it put in on Saturday or Monday.

Gak!
