Also when you get married. :) I put my wife's vehicle on my policy before we got married. After we got married it dropped $1k/ year. TheInspector 08-08-2006, 12:32 PM I put my wife's vehicle on my policy before we got married. After we got married it dropped $1k/ year. Dang. I guess I should get married. ;) cpayne5 08-08-2006, 12:34 PM 03 BMW M3 $2k a year probably isn't that bad considering you're under 25 and driving an M3. TheInspector 08-08-2006, 12:43 PM TMC is also under 25, has three tickets and pays half of what I do. That's what caught my eye. However, we live in different markets, so that could change everything...I guess. cpayne5 08-08-2006, 12:51 PM TMC is also under 25, has three tickets and pays half of what I do.

That truck is probably ~$400 a year extra for you and he has a Mazda 5, which isn't quite an M3 in the insurance company's eyes. ;) Monkeydad 08-08-2006, 02:18 PM 03 BMW M3 :oink: Well THAT explains the high rate! It's expensive for them to repair it if someone hits you. REALLY expensive. TheMalcolmConnection 08-08-2006, 02:22 PM That sounds expensive. I pay $400 every 6 months for TWO CARS with Allstate. What kind of car do you drive? Is it a "high performance" car? It's "considered" a sports car. It's a Mazda3. We just got our new bill and my fiancee and I combined pay $639 for her 2001 Altima and my 2004 Mazda3. So I guess that isn't bad.

It won't be long until I sell it. firstdown 08-08-2006, 02:41 PM Unfortunately, that is the name of the game. Since the insurance company is a corporation, they must make profits. If they don't make profits, then the stockholders will fire the corporate officers--and the stockholders only care about their return on investment--not about ethics. This is exactly the type of behavior which gives me a terrible feeling about insurance in general.Statefarm is not a stock company and does not sell shares of stock so they do not have stockholders to answer too.
