I currently have progressive and I pay $1500 per year.
this covers 2003 evo, 2000 Chevy S10, 2004 Acura TL
All have $100k/$300k coverage, $1000 deduc on collision and $500 on Comp and $0 on glass

 

Turcoface, for your room, I definitely think the 46" is the way to go. I haven't seen my tv in our room yet (obviously!), but sitting 6-8' away where it is now looks perfect! And even if the price/inch is similar, you have to think about how much each extra inch costs going up in size. For me, $100/inch wasn't worth it...

So I say go 46", but that's IMHO, YMMV

 

So when you need to make a claim, do you just have to call them? Also will I have to have pictures taken of the car and send them to Progressive? Just so they know how the car looks in case of an accident or anything like that.

 

HOLY SH*T!!! $5500/year! That's insane! I have Progressive now as well (for my old POS Jap box!) and only pay $160/6 months Haven't needed them to do anything yet, so no idea how they are after an accident or whatever.

 

yup, just call them. They are always there. I believe they have local adjusters that can come out if there is a claim made.
I didnt take any pics for all the cars I have had under them. No problems so far

 

DAMN!! 320 a year? I had the evo and the s10 and it was 960ish I believe.

 

I guess that's what happens when your 18 and own an Evo lol. When I heard that I almost called the dealership to tell them I couldnt afford the car or atleast the insurance payments lol. Right now I pay roughly $3600 but that's under my dad's insurance. With progressive and the insurance under my name, its $3000 a year. So I think ill be going with Progressive. The $3,600 a year is with a 30% discount I think because my car has Lojack and then I had to go to drivers ed so I could get my license.

 

i have progressive and i definatly recomend them. i pay 2200 a year with a bunch of tickets on my record. my evo got broken into 3 weeks after i bought it and they came up the next day and were very good. handed me the check on the spot. then i found more damage 2 days later, they came back and cut another check right then and there. Progressive FTW

 

Josh, my .02 before you make your final decision...if you father/mother/grand parent on any side of your family EVER served in the military and was discharged or retired honorably, you may qualify to be "grandfathered" into a USAA membership. I have USAA for everything, investments, banking, insurance (both home and cars) and they are awesome. With full coverage on both of my cars (both 06's) it's like 1400 a year. And I have quite a few old tickets and my wife has an accedent from 2 years ago.

Just letting you know just incase.

 

I wish but my parents and grand parents are from Portugal and never served in the U.S military. Most likely ill be going with progressive and can anyone tell me if I have to pay the premium all at once? or do they have monthly payments?

 

Thanks for the advice marsh. I am still pondering but will be purchasing the TV next week. I do sort of feel that i would be forcing the 52 in the room, plus with the price difference i could get a sweet new receiver.

 

i pay 10 installments a year. they typically make you put a certain percentage down when opening a new account. iirc i put 400ish down on my 2700 policy when i opened it.

 

for the insurance discussion i believe i pay $1300/year for both the evo and sentra with $500 deducible on both.

 

I currently have the same. 10 payments per year but they screwed me the 2nd month in by telling me they changed it to 8 payments a year. I basically had to pay 3 months of insurance in 1 month.

 

Wow. I cant wait till I'm 21. Seeing what you guys pay for insurance makes it seem like I'm getting ripped off.
