Re: Holy...cow. Insurance.
Be thankful you don't live in NY. I'm 55, married, no kids in the house and no accidents or tickets in years. Also 3 cars and 2 drivers and only pleasure use and I pay about $1,250 per car (XF, TL, and Grand Cherokee all '05's) per year. The price you pay for living in the Big Apple! Single guys, 25 years old or so with any bad driving experience could probably pay $6,000 a year.

Wow. I am seriously shocked. Darn my "high performance vehicle."

You need to go shopping indeed.
I am 45 and no tickets in the past 7 years but I am with State Farm and pay only $645 a year, yes I did say "A Year" although I have 2 other vehicles insured as well as my house.

Boy, it's a tough crowd around here. Ok, I went to my files (which I should have done in the first place) and found that I was wrong; the correct amount is $337.80 for 6-months. There will be some variations due to location, driving record, deductibles, road hazard, towing, etc. but you should be able to get something in this price neighborhood.

Can't you get insurance from anywhere??? I live in Canada but my insurance is from Wyoming I just got North American coverage added in so I'm covered everywhere even in Puerto Rico. I work in the USA so need US coverage for my truck for work but when I bought my car in Canada nobody would cover me because I didn't have a Canadian driver's license anymore but the insurance I go through in the USA said no problem. Just a thought if you want to shop around.

Mine is $545/$500 ded. for 6 months with Geico. It was just under $500 when I had a $1,000 ded., figured the extra $10 was worth it since I'd have to go almost the whole tenure of my loan to make up the other $500 in case the car got in a wreck. Plus the rate is bound to go down (it did after the first 6 months).
