One good reason to get older, you fall out of high risk brackets for the most part.

Two shit boxes, one of them fully covered, bunch of other misc stuff insured and I think my bill is around $95 a month. Direct debit so I never actually see the bills. Clean record. Been with the same ins agency since I started(nationwide) driving so I’m getting some bonus handjob discount or something in the end.

I slid on a banana peel and crashed once, so my insurance is a little higher than most.

Sucks being 24. I pay $200/mo for my Civic and my bike. My bike is $50/mo, while my Civic is costing me $150/mo.

Oddly enough, my GTO was only like $90/mo.

my truck costs less to insure than my Elantra did for some odd reason even though I paid more for the truck used than I did for the car new.

I insured my fiance’s ring through Jewelers Mutual, a company specializing in jewelry insurance because they were cheaper than adding it to my Allstate policy which has my car, bike and renters policies. It’s still more expensive than my bike and renters insurance combined.

My wife’s ring is insured through our home owner’s policy.

Also, couldn’t you write the GTR off during tax time for a business? Advertising, depreciating value, etc?

I thought you would be able to write off the interest from the loan and the depreciation of the car if it’s owned by a business? For you it wouldn’t make as much sense. But, for others it may.

Yea, the state isnt a big fan of that. Tough to do on a super sports car as listed by insurance.
