so i've been shopping for car insurance online. i've gotten rates from $140 a month up to $800 a month (

) for the very same coverage options. i mean, wtf? maybe i have to take a day off next week and just go to a few agents... i don't trust those online quotes. no idea whats right or wrong.

Same with Progressive, State Farm...all of them have different formulas to say who gets what.

I'm not partial to any of them...if I get one that is cheaper I'm jumping ship to it. I have no loyalties to insurance. Geico has been fine for me for a few years now so I'm with them. Just thought I would inject some sense into this before it gets to an e-peen race.

ucla1ove3 · 01-25-2009, 11:14 AM

go to the car insurance place and get one there, it's more accurate than online and most of them have it already plugged into the system... as a 2009 model but it's there nonetheless.
