Default another " vehicle classification" change on insura

just got my bill for this month and it says there is a another classification change on Tc's. The diffrence from the one i got 6 or so months ago is that the money I owe is less! looks like im saving $47.20 this month. I hope its every month that be like $560. a year. If i remember right the last change added around $600. so I pay almost $2300 now. Any body else seen this on their bills?

Man, I am always amazed how some people pay so much. Full coverage for me is just $1300 a year. Though, I have a clean record.

I didn't notice the first change some 6 months ago on my bill. One good thing about getting old; your insurance payments go down! I only pay $73 a month.

Well, it depends on where you live for a huge part. Mine went up tremendously just moving 600 miles away. Its a pain, but that is how it is

It all depends on the area you are in and other factors. My NJ insurance rate (under my parents policy) was $2k a year with full coverage. By myself, it would of been $4k a year and I had a clean record but was younger.

When I moved to VA, the insurance went up 600.00 (2600.00 a year) for full coverage by myself. I shopped around and ended up with Geico who charged me $1k a year for full coverage. When I got the tC, it went up 500.00 but when I added my wife and her new truck on my policy about 2 months ago, my rate went down. so now i'm paying 1400 a year for two cars with full coverage.

One thing I do know is that in the state of VA (as I'm told by the insurance companies), they run a credit check on you. The better your score is, the better the rate is as well. Not sure what my credit score has to do with my car being insured but whatever.

i'm only paying $450 every 6 months for an insanely high amount of coverage... USAA is the way to go if you can get covered by them

I remember reading a local newspaper that showed most and least expensive cities for buying car insurance. Of course Detroit ( downtown) is #1. ( im in the suburb) The least expensive city is in Nashville... The paper compared Detroit to Nashville on a certain car and a person.. it was like $5000/yr to $500/yr.
yikes.

Yeah, I miss the insurance around there. I grew up in and around Miami, OK and went to college at PSU in KS.. nice to see someone from the area on here!

When I moved to MN in 2004, my insurance more than doubled... that part sucked! Now I have my three cars and my fiance all on the policy.. so it is a bit higher But I just changed over to Ameriprise (AMEX) insurance and am getting more coverage for about $75 per month less.. so I am happy. For having a wreck on her record and a couple of tickets still on mine.. I am happy for $200 per month for both of us and three cars!

I live in LA and everyone knows the insurance here is hella high. Well I did my shopping and I pay about 128 per month for my 07 tc. Mercury insurance is the way to go.
