Grundy Ins...Running Errands????????
In the Grundy (in-line) insurance application they ask if you run errands with the car. If you run errands you don't get their coverage.
So........If I amout cruising, the wife calls me on the Cell, asks me to pick up a loaf of bread on the way home and something happens, does Grundy refuse your claim because "Fresh Bread!" was found in the car???
OR.......if I need to go to the parts store to get a part for my S-10, and the wife's out shopping with her car and the Vette is just sitting there do I wait all day for my wife to return to use her car to go to the parts store???
OR...the vettes been sitting in the garage about 3 weeks, I need milk, and I take the Vette in order to roll the tires and circulate some oil...I'm not covered???
They'll provide coverage if I pleasure cruise all around Orlando all day in some
heavy crazy traffic because it's pleasure driving but won't cover a 3 mile drive to the grocery store????..............Strange........Co mments????

Probably has to do with the car being left unattended, like in a parking lot.
My collector ins. has the same stipulation :cheers:

I agree mine just does not want the car left unattended in a parking lot. They don't want it used for a daily driver or daily chores. Yea I take mine to the local store for milk and bread but I can usually see it. Kind of a judgement call. I suppose if they want to get technical it is in print but I doubt they would hold you to it.

Re: Grundy Ins...Running Errands???????? (Touringpro)
Yeah, I had the same problem: I submited the online application, tried to be honest, and they said they couldn't help me. C'mon, what's one expected to do if one's daily driver is at the shop? Rent a car, while the Vette is in the garage, dying to go out? Who wouldn't drive the Vette in this situation? I guess you're just expected to lie... :cuss:

Re: Grundy Ins...Running Errands???????? (Matt Gruber)
my agent said if my car is damaged in any parking lot it is not covered. Seems fair to me.
Rates are low for a reason.
