Any GEICO employees on ScionLife? I need advice.
I am an Allstate Insurance agent. Cant tell you anything about GEICO (well.. I can tell you one thing, I wouldnt have them for my Insurance, but thats neither here nor there.)
However, I did buisness with American Collectors (Based in New Jersey). I had my widebody custom Porsche insured with them. Check them out.
With almost any Insurance like your seeking, there are going to be requirements that you probally will not meet. Is the car your only car? Thats going to pretty much seal the deal with most "collector" or "show car" type of insurance. Drive less than 3,000 miles a year? Locked and alarmed garage? The list will go on and on.
Id recommend to stop putting money into your car if its your only vehicle. . This will give you the opportunity to maybe get a garage, and keep it LOCKED UP. Thats your best form of ASSURANCE (not Insurance) out there..

I don't want that kind of insurance. All I want is Geico to include my rims so if anything happens to my rims i'll have them covered. I'll have to call them up.
My lease will end in October. I moved here so that I can have some freedom. Most likely I will go back to one of my mom's houses which are in the safest area in VA/MD/DC tristate.

Oh yeah, plus you can either get a viper, pit bull, or bear - and keep them in the garage too.. no one will mess with your stuff EVER.
As far as your rims - get some McGard locks. That will add a good degree of protection to your wheels.

But I think my AR15 Pre-ban could solve most break-in problems that the rc51 cant!
As well, I have LoJack. I am thinking of getting it put on the bike as well.

I had GEICO quote me 5 months ago...just to see what the number one "advertised" discount insurance co. could do on full coverage for my tC......
It was $800 a year HIGHER than USAA.
The lizard can kiss my tC!
P.S. You can visit them by going to www.usaa.com . And BTW.....their checking accounts are also second to none!

You should be able to claim your stolen modifications on your home owners or renters insurance. You'll more than likely see a rate increase, though. If you have either, call up your agent and ask.

Isn't it funny how we torture ourselves by buying nice things....
...only to worry about the inevitable THEFT of said items by people whom are too lazy to aquire them through legitimate means???
This world needs an enema.
