You guys just need to get married. I pay $350 every 6 months for full coverage on the evo.

WS300s FTW! I love them on my car too! And they've lasted 1.5 winters now and still have plenty o' tread left. I can't believe you've been driving on the stock tires this long, at least get all-seasons! Haha.

Or just let mommy and daddy keep you on the family insurance plan, all 3 of our cars are insured together. ~100/month for the Evo, 109/month for the Porsche. Puts into perspective how high the insurance rates are for the Evo because of thefts and joy-ridin teens eh? Though 350 is even less than that, you lucky bastard!

Finally the proper balance has been restored... Girls pay more for insurance because they get in accidents more... Just doesn't make sense that guys pay more... Even my aunt who is basically our insurance agent says that girls should pay more. Just like how silver and white should be cheaper colors to insure since they are statistically safer.

Maybe if you guys didn't drive going 140+ around Heber etc you wouldn't get tickets so much though! Evan, Josh, and I probably havent' had many tickets, I know my record is clean right now. Pretty sure Evan's is sparkling. That day was still so funny, it will go down in history, I will be telling my grandkids about it.

Anyway, good luck to you Jordan.
Hey, I thought life began at 140
