I get where you’re coming from—paperwork feels more “real” somehow, but I’ve had a claim folder disappear at a dealership once and it was a nightmare....
I’ve run into this at dealerships and high-end service centers too. Tried to use my loyalty points for a detailing package and stack it with a seasona...
That’s true, but then again, I’ve had paper claims literally disappear into thin air—or maybe just under the floor mats of my S-Class. Either way, gon...
Yeah, insurance is a total maze, especially with rideshare stuff. My car’s on the higher end, so I’m always double-checking those policy details—just ...

Yeah, that's spot-on. My insurer knocked a bit off when I showed them my garage setup and mentioned my car club membership. Not huge savings, but hey,...
I've actually gone the smaller insurer route after a speeding ticket—not a DUI, but still relevant. Honestly, I didn't find them any more forgiving on...
Had a similar issue last summer—my windshield got chipped near Denali, and it wasn't cheap to fix. From what I've seen, insurers usually hike premiums...
