lowering insurance

I was wondering if anyone knows tricks for lowing your auto insurance (aside from waiting for years). I am a good drive, I had one speeding ticket in the last 4 years. But, last summer, on the final leg of a road trip down some UNlit road in middleofnowhere Indiana, I smacked into a big deer with my Blazer and had to file a $6k+ claim. Since then, insurance is far from affordable. Just to give you an idea, with every insurance company that will even give me a quote, it costs $2k/year to insure a used SATURN. That's for liabilty only and a $1k deductable. Should I lie and say I'm a woman?

You mean you aren't? :eek:

Seriously. Insurance companies are crooks! I guess you could get married, I know that effects insurance costs here in Ontario. Otherwise get a motorbike or just bite the bullet.

When I lived in Milwaukee, the least expensive insurance was American Family. Keep trying insurance companies until you find a good deal. Lying won't help because they will probably cancel your insurance if you have an accident and they found out.... Find a good agent and don't be afraid to ask how you can lower your rates.

Also, try www.progressive.com because they will do a comparison for you.

car alarms and I know that in some states or counties you can take driver safety classes, but thats all I know of:bandit:

suggest you look at whether there is an owner's club for your marque and if so wether they have have any group arrangements.....my father cut the quote for his Jag in half that way........

I think its time for you to keep shopping. Try Gyco and AIG, they usually pretty good with their rates.
