Re: INSURANCE PRAISE! (Robert N)
they increased ours 3 times over the last year. ive heard state farm is cheap, but they screw you if anything happens...
What are Haggertys requirements? i currently have the vette on Allstate too because its not deemed classic until 2004 in Colorado...

'79ProwlerOrange, I use American Family (I know they are in CO) and have an awesome plan for non classic insurance for the vette. Awesome to deal with and great rates. Migt be worth a look till 2004.

Re: INSURANCE PRAISE! (Robert N)
the sad thing is my blazer is more expensive to insure than my vette. :rolleyes: its a '94 S-10 blazer 4x4. so its 4 wheel drive and im under 25. no accidents, and i think only one ticket they picked up on. the thing that gets me is its double monthly to insure the blazer, but the vette is going to cost 4 time as much to replace. not exagerating. both are under full coverage BTW.
im going to check into American Family though. if your happy with them theres a chance i will be too. :cheers:

Re: INSURANCE PRAISE! ('79ProwlerOrange)
The cost difference is based not on what it will cost you to replace the vette, but what the insurance company believes the vette is going to cost to replace.

Re: INSURANCE PRAISE! (Robert N)
yea i know. thats the scary thing about it. since i havent had it appraised recntly i know they would try and give me the purchase price if it were totaled (knocking on wood.) so i would only get about 1/3 of what ive put into it/ whats its worth. im almost dead even according to NADA.

Re: INSURANCE PRAISE! ('79ProwlerOrange)
Glad to hear that Haggerty done well by you, but I am curious if they questioned you as to where you were driving the Vette to at the time of the accident. Did you tell them you were on the way to a show or what??? :cheers:

I've had Hagerty for years. Thank goodness I haven't had any claims, but whenever I cal or e mail them, there customer service and response time has been top notch!
If you meet their requirements, I think they can't be beat.

Re: INSURANCE PRAISE! ('79ProwlerOrange)
Oliver,
Glad things went quickly :yesnod: That's one less thing to worry about. :hurray:
Prowler Orange,
I've had State Farm since 1981. I think they're a pretty good insurance carrier. I have them for my vehicles (three), boatand home owners insurance.
I've had claims for vandalism ( repainted my '72 Monte Carlo after being "egged") , front of van painted from another egging, a windshield replaced in my Park Ave on my auto policy.
On my homeowners I've had a section of roof replaced after a major storm and had my hot tub rewired and completely rebuilt after a voltage surge.
None of these incidents had any influence on my premiums. :thumbs: I've also been with them long enough that I get one "free" accident ( doesn't count against me)
