[Silly Little Cars] Silly_little_cars Digest, Vol 53, Issue 13 - Insurance?

Wed Oct 12 15:57:11 PDT 2011

Dumb question, but does anyone have a recomended insurance carrier for their silly little car?

i use amica for my cars because it's super cheap, but they don't take motorcycles.  I had an agent isure me @ Progressive, but they dropped me when I inquired about vandalism insurance and provided a full description of my cushman.  My agent can't find anyone to underwrite.

Thanks

This is none of our business - we didn't ask for the details of your
past, nor do we want them - this is a list of people that enjoy silly
little cars, not silly little drama. So please please live up to the
Gandhi quote in your signature, have some self-respect, and take this
discussion offline...
