just like in the past whenever the cars began to get modified, the insurance companies tried to step in to shut it down.. just like now they are trying it again. It's amazing to me that they want complete control of an insured person's life.. why? so they NEVER have to pay a claim.. I've never heard much good of geico anyway, the people i've known who had that had to really fight hard to get things fixed, and when they did get fixed workmanship wasn't that great. I say forget Geico and the dumb lizard and find other insurance companies that don't have a problem with OUR choice to buy a sporty car..

that article is hilarious.. and so is geico.. if this article isn't one of their "spoofs" and is serious.. then it's not even funny to be joking about james dean and how he lost his life in his car.. sure we was speeding but with computer reconstruction they've shown how the guy in the ford turned RIGHT in front of Dean and that's what killed him, the guy practically drove over him! It was the other driver's fault.. sure dean MIGHT have been speeding but even if he was driving slower the other inept driver would've done Dean some major damage.. So if Geico is serious about that.. I'd be happy to have that Gecko for lunch.. Fry up the pan boys!!

lol that's pretty much the dumbest thing i've seen lately. although the fact that if you have a ricer as a kid, he probably drives like a retard is pretty accurate

do you really need to let geico know of any customizations? i haven't told them a thing. and when i asked, they said "we don't care bout that." but according to the article, they do.

and just because i mod my car, does not mean i street race it!!

Where was this article in 1969 when the Chargers came out? Where did drag racing start? On the street. This is not a new problem.

First with the corny commercials on TV with the stupid lizard and now this . I think Geico has reached a new level of STUPID . Ok from what I have seen on here the whole idea of us playing AUTO tag with our cars HA , you think I am gonna screw up my bumpers after I just spend 3 hours detailing , Yeah ok Geico . As for performance mods your right , I have Enki rims I MUST BE RACING OR DRIFTING , OHH GOD MY CAR HAS A STRUT TOWER BAR FROM SCION , IT MUST BE A STREET RACING PACKAGE

lol...what a funnie article.. Nice find! but when they explained auto tag. It seems like we have to hit eachother or something with our bumpers, so our bumpers will have holes in them or something.. lol
