InyaAzz Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 Everybody who's throwin' out these #'s for their insurance costs, need to start stating what their deductibles are.

Disclaimer Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 Meh, you're never gonna get apples-to-apples. People have different discounts (multi-car, homeowner, etc....) and stuff too. I don't know what the privacy implications are for throwing your insurance policy info out there either? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what the privacy implications are for throwing your insurance policy info out there either?I don't think it really matters if you give up some policy information. Hell when you call around to get new quotes they ask what your current policy is.....so what's so private.I've had 100/300/100k for over 10 years w/ 250/500 deductibles. That's just for the bike and it's not attached to any other policies or vehicles.$690 a year....suck a dick SF! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
