I guess then based on the past household driving history I don't have too much to worry about so far with Grundy. I got a suspicious stop light ticket about 10 years ago which was cheaper to pay then challenge, and my wife tried to widen the garage entry way with her car, but I paid that "ding" out of pocket. Luckily, my insurance carrier, AMICA, forgave the one ticket.

i have had Hagerty for two years .i may be looking for someone new? both car are under insured 30.000 for both cars it is $1000. a year they know what i have under the hoods .i like to think i am a good driver i miss more then i hit. i did have one fender bender . they did get me for a 55 in a 45 so the speeding ticket is what they seen . so i do not know if i am getting a good deal or not...but i know i have taken both cars out less the 4 times a year and its costing $250 for a 5 mile run :( i am going to look in to Grundy see if there better or just sell the cars ?any one want a very mild warm over 66GTO and a allmost stock chevy coup

They wrote an auto policy for comp & collission only, and maintained it through construction for me. The CHROME guy was amazed that AmFam had done that for me. My only headache is that if I should have a total loss their contract language includes an "...or market value..." clause which will likely get us into an argument. State Farm is the same way, as is Allstate and the other "traditional" carriers. That said, my '33 is "....just another car..." to them - no restrictions on mileage, trips to the store, using it to run errands, or anything else. It is a pleasure vehicle, and I can use it as it pleases me :LOL:Quote:

i had haggerty for 3 years and was very happy. then my youngest son got his license and wanted to drive my car to shows. so i contacted haggerty to add him. they dropped me. so i told them that i would not let him drive the car. they told me i had to add him because he lived in my house and they would not cover it. so i hunted around and got a great rate with no restrictions on me or my son from geico.
